Getting Started with Your Ankhor Key

Welcome. This quick guide shows how to set up and start using your FIDO2 security key for secure login and second factor authentication.

1. Plug in the Key

Insert the USB-A FIDO2 key into any available USB-A port on your computer.

The device works on Windows, macOS, Linux, and ChromeOS with no drivers needed.

2. Register the Key on Your Account

You can add the key on most services under Security or Account Settings.

Typical menu:
Account Settings → Security → Two Factor Authentication → Add Security Key

When asked:

1. Select Security Key.

2. Touch the key sensor when prompted.

3. Give the key a friendly name.

3. Use the Key to Sign In

When logging in:

1. Enter your username and password.

2. The service will ask for your security key.

3. Touch the key to confirm.

The process takes only a few seconds.

4. Use on Multiple Services

You can register the same key with different platforms:

• Google

• Microsoft

• GitHub

• AWS

• Facebook

• Twitter / X

• Password managers

• Any WebAuthn compatible service

5. Using the Backup Key (Optional)

Most services allow you to add more than one FIDO2 key.
We recommend registering a second key as a backup so you do not lose access.

6. If the Key Is Not Detected

Try the following:

• Reinsert the key

• Try another USB port

• Ensure the site supports FIDO2 or WebAuthn

• Check that browser is up to date (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari)

7. Privacy and Security Notes

Your FIDO2 key stores no personal data.
It does not track, sync or upload anything.
All operations are performed locally on the key.
