If YubiKey is the default 2FA method... is it advisable to have other methods like "Google prompts" also enabled (Or does that negate/undermine the purpose of the Yubikey)?

@JohnBoonBeanDutchman 2 года назад

The price of that key is just ridiculously high, if you take 2 you will lose €150,- euro €15,- would be a reasonable price. then they say that it will last 30 years, but the usb input that also changes every once in a while and they can probably make those things for a €1, if we wait a few more years, I think there will be several brands or systems on the market, think that now only people who are willing to pay the price for it who have cripto or other valuable things online and if the rest don't come to purchase they will automatically become cheaper, for this price I just feel for me as a ripped off, I already had seen one other brand just for €13,20 but was sold out now for the moment, I think I it say it was a 2FA key

@dcovatech 5 месяцев назад

Excellent presentation. At first I was confused about the backup key. In the IT industry a backup implies a copy, a duplicate of such as a file or the contents of a hard drive. But I eventually learned that in the case of a security key, a backup is not a copy, a duplicate, of the first key. A backup is a second key independent of the first key. It took me a bit to unravel how the backup term was used so differently in the context of security keys.

It is really cool and secure but... only bad side is: Holds only 32 TOTP entries. So if you have more that 32 you better off using Authy or Bitwarden premium TOTP to store non important TOTPs and keep the important ones on your ubikey. I learned the hard way :/

I just got my first Yubikey the other day and I did a bunch of reading so I may not be an expert, but they stressed that you should get two keys 'cuz if you lose one, you'll never get into those accounts again. They even recommend that you put the 2nd key somewhere offsite and preferably in a fireproof box/safe.

@eganzale 2 года назад

Do you know if consumers can use the 5C FIPS series keys? I'm wondering if the regular 5 NFC series differs from the 5 FIPS series other than the added level of security on the FIPS. I ask because I'm wondering if let's say you want to secure your gmail account with the regular 5 series, can you also do it with the 5 FIPS series? Or are most accounts the average user utilizes only compatible with the regular 5 series and not the FIPS series? If I can still use the FIPS series that has government level 3 encryption vs. the regular 5 series, which only has level 1 encryption, than I'd rather just make the investment and pay slightly more for the FIPS version and get added security but I'm not sure if it's ONLY for government use or can regular consumers use it to and for the most part it would still function like the regular 5 series but with the added protection?

Thank you for your work on our security. As a man who teaches security, I am not finding a video on what I consider to be a core threat to a person's security, "MySpy" and other embedded spay software that may or is installed on peoples phones and computers. It is well understood and highly used by those "actors" who use them, the public is oblivious. To me, if you are talking security, this a a MUST presentation: 1) to create the awareness of what Spy software is. 2) How spy software works, is installed and can track you, intimately. 3) A. How to combat it? B. How to not allow it to be installed on your tech (iPhone / Laptop) C. How to detect it (very hard to do) D. How to get rid of it (regardless if you know you have it.) To me, this is a fundamental to any website / RU-vid channel focussing on security. Maybe you already have a video on this topic, is so, I did not find it and I apologize. If you do not have this video, this is a MUST video and to me, number ONE for anybody taking iPhone / Laptop and Internet security. A MUST!!!

Hey Josh - great content! A quick question to you - if you come across a website that supports both an app and physical key authentification, do you set up an app authentication too or do you stay with only the key? Say, for example, you have an Authy authentication set up but eventually you also purchase a Yubikey - would you kill the Authy authentification or keep both running in parallel? Thanks and cheers!

@AllThingsSecured 2 года назад

Great question. It depends. Sometimes I keep the authenticator app setup as a backup. So if the website allows me to setup multiple 2FA keys, then I prefer to do that. If not, then I'll setup the key as my primary and the authenticator app as the backup.

Great question, Paul. If your computer was stolen, the person would first need to hack your password to get into the computer (you do password protect your computer, I hope). After that, yes, they would have access to your email account.

Great video. I have a few questions: 1. Am I correct in my understanding that Yubikey will work on every website that uses 2FA? In other words, any site that isn’t setup to use a security key, can use the Yubikey authenticator app instead of the key? 2. How will I know BEFORE I try to login if I need to use the Yubikey authenticator app, or my Yubikey without using the Yubikey authenticator app? 3. You mention using Yubikey and 2FA when logging into websites. Is the process the same when logging into an IOS or a Windows app? Thanks Thanks

@naytoeaung Год назад

1. True, it works on every website that offers 2FAs, and you can use Yubikey authenticator app instead of the key when the site doesn't offer the physical keys as 2FAs methods. Yubikey/ Yubico Authenticator app has the same functionality as google authenticator, Authy, etc,.. but it stores in the key, which is more secure than those google and Authy. 2. It depends on which method you set up as the 2FAs options. If you set up with Yubikey, the site will ask you to provide Yubikey. Likewise, if you set up with the authenticator app, the site will ask you for the 2FAs code that the yubikey/ yubico authenticator will provide. If you set up both methods as the 2FAs in the particular site, the site should ask you to make the choice between the physical key and the authenticator app. 3. The process is the same as using in ios, android, windows, mac or linux if you set up with the yubikey/ yubico authenticator app. For the physical key option, I find that some ios/ android app doesn't accept it, which means you can authenticate only with the authenticator app. For example, Proton Mail iOS app.

You’re exactly right, Paul. Most accounts give you backup codes that you can print out and keep in a safe if you want. The bottom line is this: when you’re responsible for your own security, you need to be careful!

@Sherry-jx9hs Год назад

Do you need a key for each computer or can you store more than one computer key on them. If you have 5 computers do you need 5 keys or will one key store all the device keys. I do use two factor on some things like banking but kinda would like a stronger way to lock things down. Is a password manager a good thing instead or use both BitWarden+2FA key Thanks :)

@AllThingsSecured Год назад

Two keys…one primary and one backup. They’ll work on all your devices.

if i set up 2fa yubikey with a bank account on 1 computer then log in on a different computer do i need the key on both computers?

@dalriada842 11 месяцев назад

I've just bought two of the type A Security Key NFC ones. The 5 series is more than twice the price in the UK. I'll stick to using a free authenticator app for that additional functionality. It's a pity they don't have a version with type A on one end, and type C on the other. Only two of the machines I use have type C. In hindsight, I should maybe have got the type C for future proofing, and used adaptors left plugged in to the devices, but I didn't think of that. It's better to phase out the need for adaptors over time, as type C takes over, rather than increase the need to use them.

I am confused. Do you need a different key for every gmail account, and youtube account? Also do you need a different key for each computer you have, or can one key be used on multiple computers?

@NoEgg4u 2 года назад

I will try to answer. But I am not 100% certain of my answers. I think that I understand the process. But I never used the Yubikey. Hence, my not being 100% certain. When you use the Yubikey to log in to web sites, you are telling those web sites that your password consists of 1) what you typed in to create the account, and 2) some data that is stored on the Yubikey flash drive. So just as you can use the same password on multiple sites, I am nearly positive that you can use the same Yubikey for multiple web sites. When our host stated that he has a backup Yubikey, I believe that that means that he has two flash drives (two Yubikeys) that are both registered with his web sites. Therefore, he can use either of his Yubikeys. The web sites probably do not care which one he plugs in. Either one should work, because our host registered both of them with the web sites. As to you question about needing a different key for each computer: My guess (and I am pretty sure about this) is that you can use your Yubikey on as many computers as you choose (just as using the same password on as many computers as you choose). I highly doubt that when you use your Yubikey on one computer, that some record is made to disallow you using your Yubikey elsewhere. And whether you use a Yubikey, or you do not use a Yubikey, you should never use the same password on more than one site. Although, for people that will still use the same password on multiple sites, then the Yubikey will make their account less vulnerable (I think). Maybe our host will confirm the above, and point out if I got something wrong. Lastly, if someone has physical access to your computer, then nothing (short of full system-wide disk encryption) will keep out a skilled attacker from gaining access. There are free tools that can be installed on a bootable flash drive that will defeat all login measures. Cheers!

You don’t need a new key for every account and device. The same key can be used for all your accounts and devices at the same time, and I recommend you also have one extra backup key for all those same accounts and devices.

My Windows and Mac computers both ask me for a PIN before I use my Yubikey. So I am enter username, password, interting Yubikey, then the PIN then touching then Yubikey... It's way too many steps. What am I missing as this seems to me to be too many steps...

@markwmscym 4 месяца назад

Hi - great video. I just purchased two keys. 1 primary and a backup. I have just registered my primary key using Yubikey Manager. Do I also set up the backup key, which will probably generate a different 48 digit Management code. Do I then add the two keys as 2 factory authentication onto the service available, like 1 Password? Just a little confused on how to set up 2 keys on Yubikey Manager. Any help appreciated. Thanks

Do the key manufacturers keep a copy of your key like ledger nano x has done?!

@PaulTodd-ec9bw Год назад

Not sure why…but iPhone when 2fa is activated with security keys will still allow you to change your iCloud password word using a trusted device, IE, faceid or passcode, but still doesn’t require the YubiKey to verify? What’s the point if someone has your passcode and youre trusted device?

Josh! I know you have receive a whole bunch of questions and comments, and you probably won't get to mine, but I'm going to ask you in hopes you can help me out... I watched one of your videos, and you recommend having a 'data blocker' like a USB to USB for a public power source. There are so many out there, so which brand would you recommend? How do I know which one I can trust?

@AllThingsSecured 2 года назад

Hey Sam! USB data blockers are a pretty simple and cheap piece of equipment. There’s not a specific brand I recommend (although I do have an affiliate link in one of my other videos). Just search “USB data blocker” on Amazon and choose one that is the equivalent of ~$8-10. I hope that helps!
