Google’s Security Key Explained



Google recently just released their own security keys collectively known as “Titan Security Keys.” So in this video, I thought I’d explain what security keys are and if Google’s version is worth the purchase. Enjoy!

4:00 thus rendering your account and pretty much ALL your data useless once lost.

20 dollars is f**** 100+ reais in Brazilian's currency. Here everything is expansive and the revenue, if I can tell "salário" revenue, of a person is veeeery low

Can the account be locked, can it be unlocked?

Almost need to use two as pairs. One locked up …
Companies need manager key tools. Again with a physical safe.

"since some people don't carry around or own two smartphones", LOL.
Some people don't own ONE smartphone! That's why I'm scoping out videos on U2F Security Keys.

Yubico is way better and can be used on more services

Burnt Chicken Nugget

I think yubico was the better option. I dont like NFC because it can be skimmed by skimmers if you are walking around town and somone is close enough to the key they can grab all your key info and sell it to people who can fish.

you don't need this you just have to get a usb and put your 200000 words password in notepad put it in the us and DONE

To ayone who watched this video: DO NOT BUY SECURITY ITEMS ON AMAZON!!! Buy them always directly from the manufacturer.

Christopher Ellis

Europe has phones with two SIM cards. Can even have two countries or two companies.

Debbie Thomas

Really great option for victims of stalking and domestic violence! Thanks for the awesome video!

Tequila Ghoul

are these good for only one account or multiple?

leicaman

YubiKey was they key that convinced Google they work. Titan came from that. And trust Google over Yubico? Nope.

And Apple now supports U2F in Safari. Things are moving fast.

i Might buy the Google secuity key this summer, i kinda regret buying from Yubico, I hope Google can make the Nfc functionallity not so cumbersom, it is a pain in the butt to get it to work on Yubico.
they have not intergrated this flawlessly in the yubikey 5 series.

Dan Duncker

Pete Silvestri

amitabh dayal

What happen if somebody steal your yubikey? Authy is safer because is somebody steal your mobile they need to use biometric to unlock the app

Tae Mabaho

How if I accidentally turn on the security key? Without having that key ?

Iam Rx74

its the same as Yubikey but doesn't work with Microsoft and many more. Yubikey is accepted in every account that support security keys. I have both of them and Im pissed with this google titan one year has passed and they are not ready yet.

siri khalsa

ZEROKOOL-20

Everyone should have one no matter what.!

LittleBit

Feitian also sells a wireless-wired 2pack.

Ihor Zver

YET YOU HAD ZERO TIPS ON HOW TO CONNECT TO AN ANDROID

1:42 Authenticator software is "vulnerable to Phishing attacks".

How are they more vulnerable than a physical key? With phishing and social engineering you're handing over everything (authenticator 2fa codes) to the adversary inadvertently anyway. They can just as easily tell someone to plug in their Key.
