Any Open Source OTP Hardware Token?

2 points by reinhardt1053 9y ago ↗ HN

I am looking for something like this: https://www.vasco.com/products/two-factor-authenticators/hardware/one-button/digipass-go-6.html

that doesn't require paying high fees for the authentication server.

Google provides an open source authenticator server, I am looking for the client part implemented in hardware that works with it. https://github.com/google/google-authenticator

I know about Yubico but their tokens don't come with a led display, you need to plug them to a USB port which it's an issue if you want to log in from your phone.

There are several open source authentication servers out there. E.g. I am working on privacyidea (http://www.privacyidea.org).

There is one open hardware project I know of. It is the nitrokey (http://nitrokey.com), which is also supported by privacyIDEA starting in the next version of privacyidea. But this is also a USB device similar to yubikey.

There is not open OTP display device I know of. Also, Most of these devices come preseeded, which means the vendor generated the secret key. But if the only concern is your phone - you can use the yubikey with an USB OTG. Or there is the yubikey neo, which works via NFC.
