Using Google Authenticator for most 2FA to improve my online security. This Yubikey will certainly assist as well.




Linux Mint 19.3 (Yes upgrade is overdue)  with ZFS and multiple replicating XigmaNas servers (BSD with ZFS) for storage, all connected via Mikrotik Routerboard (firewall) to a Huawei 618 for Spark Wireless Broadband...

Currently using TOPT across a couple (or three) services - love the idea of physical security - perhaps no more typing in a passcode?

I use 2FA and avoid services that don't use it or authenticators, or things that rely on SMS 2FA. Physical keys are the future, sadly.

Keen as for this - have been looking for a hardware based option for a long time!  Thanks for organising Mauricio!

I use 2FA on a number of accounts via an app on my phone- Authenticator.

 

 

 

It works fine but it is a PITA having to keep looking at the phone, remember the number, forget the number, look again, number changed etc etc etc. I am not good at recalling numbers.

 

 

 

A portable hardware solution sounds like a much more convenient option.

Hope to get one 2FA hardware that will give extra layer of protection of my accounts especially with NFC as makes it handy to mobile phones or any computer.

I assume that this support to Linux OS as well.

I currently use Google Authenticator and Authy. A yubikey seems like a much more convenient alternative.

About 6-7 years ago I started using 2FA, adding it to every account wherever I could. It gives me peace of mind to know that I'm using the best and most secure options available to me. I hope I win! I never lose!

Great giveway!

 

Using 2FA in various places including my Google Account and various other places that mandate it. Google Authenticator is my jam and I use 2FA from Okta at work.
