2FA is a method of confirming a user’s identity by using a combination of two different factors: something they know (password), something they have (security key), or something they are (fingerprint). Security keys play an important role in two-factor authentication (2FA) when securing online accounts against phishing - one of the most common causes of data breaches. Google is now splitting the bundle and making the keys available individually: The $50 bundle comes with a USB-A/NFC key, a Bluetooth/NFC/USB key, and an adapter for devices with USB Type-C ports. Google introduced the Titan Security Key at Cloud Next in August 2018. Google’s latest take on a Fast Identity Online ( FIDO) key will hit the Google Store in the U.S. The USB-C Titan Security Key, manufactured by Yubico, is compatible with Android, Chrome OS, macOS, and Windows devices. If you have a new phone or laptop with a USB-C port, Google now has a security key to match. Connect with top gaming leaders in Los Angeles at GamesBeat Summit 2023 this May 22-23.
