    Google titan keys have FIDO 2 now and is still cheaper. Is Yubikey even still worth it now?

      Buy both, you'll need a backup key anyway.

      I think it still is but there is nothing bad about having an extra Key

    Thanks my guy! My mom's google account got hacked and they got every single member of my families' phone number. Now my phone is blowing up with weirdos and it's inconvenient to my business. I'll be investing quickly!

    What about the titan chip in Pixel phones? I've only gotten that to work on Google accounts, nothing else... 🤷🏻‍♂️

      MZ, thanks for the comment. Not sure one the titan in the Pixel, it is a Google product. I would still recommend the YubiKey as I know it works well.

    I'm wondering... If I'm already using an Authentication app that generate a six-digit code, do I still need a security key?

    • @LinusDropTips
      @LinusDropTips 2 года назад +6

      An authentication app is still much more secure than email 2FA (Especially if you use the same email for everything), and especially more secure than SMS authentication, but a hardware 2FA key is still more secure than authenticator app.
      One way a security key may protect you when an authentication app will not, is phishing attacks. Fake login websites can ask you for your one-time passcode generated by your authenticator app, where a hardware key just simply wouldn't work on a fake login website.

      I full agree with M. MEL, it is great that are using an Authentication app but I truly believe in the extra security of a hardware key. Phishing scams are getting more sophisticate these days and we need to keep up with hardware keys in all the places they are accepted.

      ​@@mytechexpert absolutely, as we say in security, it's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Especially if it goes the extra mile to protect.

    Is Yubikey works with Paypal 2FA?

      Yes YubiKey does work and is supported by PayPal.

      It does, but unfortunately Paypal only accepts one key per account, so you can’t put a backup key at the same time.

    Yubikey is much better than google key 🔑…..the google key has no signature counters !!

      Thank you, I believe the Yubikey is a better choice.
