All YubiKeys except the blue "security key" model and the "Bio Series - FIDO Edition" are compatible with this guide. NEO models are limited to 2048-bit RSA keys. Compare YubiKeys [here](https://www.yubico.com/products/yubikey-hardware/compare-products-series/). A list of the YubiKeys compatible with OpenPGP is available [here](https://support.yubico.com/hc/en-us/articles/360013790259-Using-Your-YubiKey-with-OpenPGP). In May 2021, Yubico also released a press release and blog post about supporting resident ssh keys on their Yubikeys including blue "security key 5 NFC" with OpenSSH 8.2 or later, see [here](https://www.yubico.com/blog/github-now-supports-ssh-security-keys/) for details.

_Note that if you want to use a **YubiKey ONLY for SSH** (and don't really care about PGP/GPG), then [since OpenSSH v8.2](https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.2) you alternatively can simply `ssh-keygen -t ed25519-sk` (without requiring anything else from this guide!), as explained [e.g. in this guide](https://github.com/vorburger/vorburger.ch-Notes/blob/develop/security/ed25519-sk.md). Yubico also recently announced support for resident ssh keys under OpenSSH 8.2+ on their blue "security key 5 nfc" as mentioned in their [blog post](https://www.yubico.com/blog/github-now-supports-ssh-security-keys/)._

[gpg-agent](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GnuPG#SSH_agent) supports the OpenSSH ssh-agent protocol (`enable-ssh-support`), as well as Putty's Pageant on Windows (`enable-putty-support`). This means it can be used instead of the traditional ssh-agent / pageant. There are some differences from ssh-agent, notably that gpg-agent does not _cache_ keys rather it converts, encrypts and stores them - persistently - as GPG keys and then makes them available to ssh clients. Any existing ssh private keys that you'd like to keep in `gpg-agent` should be deleted after they've been imported to the GPG agent.

GPG keys on YubiKey can be used with ease to encrypt and/or sign emails and attachments using [Thunderbird](https://www.thunderbird.net/), [Enigmail](https://www.enigmail.net) and [Mutt](http://www.mutt.org/). Thunderbird supports OAuth 2 authentication and can be used with Gmail. See [this guide](https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/how-use-pgp-linux) from EFF for detailed instructions. Mutt has OAuth 2 support since version 2.0.

Keys can also be generated using template files and the `--batch` parameter - see [GnuPG documentation](https://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/Unattended-GPG-key-generation.html)
Keys can also be generated using template files and the `batch` parameter - see [GnuPG documentation](https://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/Unattended-GPG-key-generation.html).
Start from the [gen-params-rsa4096](contrib/gen-params-rsa4096) template. If you're using GnuPG v2.1.7 or newer, you can also use the ([gen-params-ed25519](contrib/gen-params-ed25519) template. These templates will not set the master key to expire - see [Note #3](#notes).
