I wanted to know if the Yubikey Neo still has a limited use of about 32000 sessions?

Thank you.

Gr. Alexander

Can anybody of Yubico confirm this?

The usage counter on any YubiKey will max out at 32757 and then wrap to 0. Basically, that means if you're using Yubico OTP, you can plug in the YubiKey 32757 times AND send at least 1 OTP each time the YubiKey is plugged in before you will need to program a new credential (instructions for programming a new credential can be found here - https://www.yubico.com/products/service ... ey-upload/). Programming a new Yubico OTP credential resets the usage counter to 0.

Thank you very much for your answer! It is a comfort that i'll be able to program a new credential. Now I can use the yubikey as much as I like.
