Got Yubikey Setup

I got two factor authentication setup today on my important accounts and my machine.

I’m using a yubikey for hardware-based 2-factor authentication. It is smaller than my pinkie fingernail.

There is too much going on with cybersecurity today to leave my accounts protected only by passwords.

The process was pretty easy. I followed instructions on Yubico’s site.

I changed to 2-factor on all my sites that really matter.

Then I also had to update my git password with a token because I’m using 2FA now. It was simple to do.

Hello banking people! You need to get on the security path. Your personal questions for security are easy to hack. Please start using hardware keys as an option to verify identity.
