I lost my RU-vid account and years of work and income through my Google account. Tremendous damage can be done to people. Crooks can't benefit from theft of my videos, but really crushed me. I will learn how to protect my new channel. Thanks for this video! Rich

you deserve a medal. exactly what I was looking for. However, your statement that you will show the ultimate secure method where losing the key means losing the account isn't true because of the backup codes, right?

@tristanbolton 3 года назад

You're right, you want to stay secure but you don't want to risk loosing your data. So use a yubikey as a primary second-factor and the printed codes in a safe as a backup.

if a Ubikey was built like a usb drive, I would use one. But the one I had a few years ago was just a piece of cheap plastic with the metal contacts exposed. It would not set correctly in the usb port and 60% of the time had a loose, intermittent connection, which caused failure errors

Or can it just be installed on a PC?

Does that mean that all of my Authenticator Codes are stored on the key and all i have to do is to install the app to read them? So if i set up 2FA for any site i could store the Authenticator Code on 2 yubikeys and have one as a backup, is that correct? And does this work for microsoft authenticator to or just google authenticator?

@c9f-anne579 3 года назад

Hi Tristan. Thanks for this video. I don't really understand how (or IF) a hacker could just view files on my desktop computer. I have a wireless network and use it with TiVo, but I HOPE my smart tv does not have access (I don't know how to tell for sure). My iPhone has nothing on it but my contacts - I don't use it for internet at all - just phone calls and text. I do zip/encrypt anything sensitive on my desktop data partition, such as financial info, identity info, password info, etc. (which carries to my backup/image files drives/partitions). Do I really need to do this? I noticed that you had checked to remember "this" computer, or not to require certain security things on "this" computer. If I only use the one desktop for everything online, can I consider that as long as "this" computer (that no one touches but me) is recognized, I don't have to be concerned about the files on my drives? Like if my password manager is unlocked, for instance - is there any way my passwords could be accessed by someone else?. How could someone have access to my files/folders on my desktop?

@tristanbolton 3 года назад

Thanks for the questions. There are a number of ways both physically and with virus' that someone could get access to your data, too many ways to list here. First protect yourself from physical access to the data, if your computer is stolen, by using an encryption-at-rest option. Encrypting your zip files is one way, you can secure all your files by encrypting your hard drive. On a mac this can be done under System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> FileVault on a Windows you'd turn on Bitlocker. To protect against cyber attack's, make sure you have a good anti-virus / malware protection, and keep your most important data offline: Digital wallets on a USB drive, Two-Factor codes with YubiKey, and Passwords (better yet use Bitwarden: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TcxZyfTOyYw.html). Hope that helps

@DS-wt7ul 3 года назад

I like your teaching style. Thank you. Do you know if its possible to remove "google prompts" as a verification method after adding a security key to your account? It seems like that would be a weaker link in the chain if it cant be disabled.

@DS-wt7ul 3 года назад

After some research it appears that as of right now, the only way to remove google prompts is to sign out of Google on that device such as a phone. It'd be nice to be able to stay signed in on my phone while also not using it for prompts. However, that also raises the issue that the phone would still remain the weak link since your Google account could be accessed on the phone itself if someone was able to get past your lock screen.

@donphilipe10 3 года назад

Great video, thanks for sharing! Is there a way to disable NFC of the Yubikey?

@curtisbme 3 года назад

No. If you are worried about it, you just have to get one of the ones that don't have it. It would have to be a very targeted attack for someone to have something that can read and replicate nfc, get close enough to the thing to get them, and then know all the other information they need to log in then use the key. If you are someone that have risk of that level of Mr. Robot hacker, you'd probably be using the non-nfc enterprise keys anyway.

@islandtimerick2671 2 года назад

Thank you Tristan. Fantastic presentation on securing Gmail! Would you please address the inherent vulnerability of all authenticator apps. If someone gets a hold of your Authenticator OTP seed they can generate OTP codes for your account, even if the don't have your Yubikey security key. The is OTP seed is plain txt stored by your service provider Gmail.

@SorinOltean77 Год назад

Are you sure the OTP seed is stored in plain text by the provider? That would be a huge security breach potential. I think nowadays all providers of 2FA have to made sure that seeds are stored encrypted.

@SorinOltean77 Год назад

is safe as far as you use the non-NFC key. Like this there is need for a physical button push to actually send the pass/OTP to Google. And so far no malware can simulate that.

I haven't tested this recently, I've encountered the familiar location block before, but I've also gotten past it on other accounts (with the users permissions of course). Like you said, I wouldn't count on that being bullet proof, but it is a nice security feature by Google.
