nitrokey.com · Open-source hardware security
We're grateful to Nitrokey for supporting the CISO.poker community and our gathering in Las Vegas this August. Nitrokey builds open-source, open-hardware security devices that practitioners can actually audit and trust — and their contribution to the night reflects exactly that spirit.
* Final placement determined on August 5, 2026. Prize awarded in-person, Las Vegas.
Nitrokey builds open-source, open-hardware security devices — FIDO2/WebAuthn keys for phishing-resistant authentication, OpenPGP smartcards, encrypted USB storage, and hardware security modules. Their firmware and hardware designs are publicly auditable, a rarity in a market full of black boxes.
Engineered in Germany with a privacy-first philosophy, Nitrokey is trusted by security teams, developers, and privacy-conscious organizations that want to verify — not just trust — the roots of their hardware.
