Your Biometrics. Your Hardware.
Zero Big-Tech Backdoors.
Meet TincKey & TincID Authenticator. An open-source capacitive biometric security key (USB-C & NFC) coupled with a zero-knowledge cross-platform 2FA application.
The Sovereign Authentication Standard
Eliminate password theft, phishing attacks, and closed-source Big Tech surveillance.
Match-on-Sensor Biometrics
Unlike standard YubiKeys that only check for physical touch, TincKey scans your actual fingerprint inside an isolated Common Criteria EAL6+ secure element. Stolen keys cannot be unlocked.
FIDO2 & WebAuthn Passkeys
Global interoperability with Google, GitHub, AWS, Binance, Microsoft, and TincOne. Completely immune to man-in-the-middle (MitM) phishing and credential stuffing.
Write-Protected Flash Vault
Includes 64GB/128GB high-speed SLC flash with a physical hardware write-lock switch. Plug into public or infected computers—malware cannot modify or encrypt your files.
1-Click Google Migration
Export accounts from Google Authenticator into a single QR code. TincID Authenticator decodes and imports 50+ 2FA tokens in under 3 seconds without touching any cloud server.
Passwordless Push-to-Approve
Skip typing 6-digit codes. Logging into your Tinc dashboard triggers an encrypted biometric approval prompt right on your smartphone or desktop.
TincBox Root of Trust
Acts as the hardware cryptographic master key for your home TincBox server. Unlocks LUKS volumes on boot and locks down access the moment it is unplugged.
