2023: Integration of the "Key" into the Yandex with Alice application
Alice The Key has appeared in the Yandex s application - a tool for convenient entry into services. This was Yandex announced on September 26, 2023.
Yandex Key creates one-time passwords for quick and safe login to Yandex ID - a single account in Taxi, Food, Mail, Disk, Kinopoisk, Music and other Yandex services. To authenticate with the Key, you need to copy a temporary password or scan a QR code.
With the Key, users can log into services using a one-time password or a combination of permanent and one-time passwords - depending on their account settings. The tool additionally protects user data: only your own mobile device can be used to log in using the Key.
The key can be used to securely log in not only to Yandex, but also to all third-party services with support for two-factor authentication using the RFC TOTP algorithm, including social networks and mail services.
You can find the Key in the profile of the Yandex with Alice application - you need to click on the avatar on the main page of the application.
