Description

Let's make authentication easy & secure. No more typing 6-digit codes. Zero touch two-factor logins on the web. Immunity to phishing.

Krypton implements the standardized FIDO Universal 2nd Factor (U2F) protocol to provide secure, unphishable two-factor authentication on the web, now in the convenient form factor that is your phone.

- Tired of typing 6-digit codes?
No more mistyping, missing 30 second windows, or waiting endlessly for that SMS.

- Instant Sign-in
Krypton securely pairs with your computer so that you don't have to touch your phone for each sign-in. Optionally, enable One tap sign-ins for enhanced security.

- Stops Phishing
SMS and authenticator app codes can easily be phished. Don't let that happen to you. Krypton protects you from phishing.

- Works with the sites you love
Google, Facebook, Twitter, Dropbox, GitHub and many more.

- Quickly protect your accounts
Setting up two-factor can be time consuming and repetitive. Just scan once with Krypton.

Get started by pairing Krypton with your browser by downloading our browser extension at: https://krypt.co/start.


>> Are you a developer?

Krypton supports developer mode so you can use Krypton as a security key for SSH and PGP private keys in addition to U2F.

Download our command line utility `curl https://krypt.co/kr | sh` and type `kr pair` to securely pair Krypton with your computer. Krypton integrates with the `ssh` command to send signature requests right to your phone. Krypton also makes signing Git commits and tags with PGP easy: run `kr codesign` to get started.

>> Unbeatable Security

Krypton is built on top of an end-to-end verified and encrypted architecture. This means zero trust. We, Krypt.co, have zero information about keys or where you're authenticating. The keys only live in the Krypton app on your phone.

The source code can be found at github.com/kryptco.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★A great concept, well implemented. It even has some advantages compared to smart cards with the audit log and additional information contained in the signing requests. This will now be my way to sign code at least on remote workstations.
5 ★Using your smartphone as a secure storage for your SSH and PGP keys is an amazing idea! I wish there was a generic password manager implemented like this. Thanks a lot for your awesome work!
4 ★This is absolutely amazing.my only issue is I have no way of backing up my private key and since I have been using the app my phone has needed a reset 3 times and it's starting to get a bit troublesome to reset all my servers each time.
4 ★Great app, great concept. I haven't gotten it to play nice with gpg-agent, and am using a $GIT_SSH_COMMAND workaround with another config file to use kr. Hopefully it becomes more seamless, or I figure out how to use it correctly.
5 ★That's an amazing concept implemented very well.
5 ★Super easy setup and it works great! Small bug: The camera was upside down when scanning the QR code
5 ★Simple and awesome! Thank you.
1 ★Freezes my phone when generating the private key, I have to do a hard restart
5 ★Works great!
5 ★Works well, although I'm somewhat disappointed about the purpose of that pkcs#11 module – if you could actually use it to sign stuff (rather than just the setenv hack it does), that'd make the app usable with a ton of other software. (Also, the app unnecessarily keeps the camera active...)
4 ★Edit: thanks, so the linux binary /usr/bin/kr can be configured to not talk to google from a setting in the phone?
5 ★Neat idea, works well.
