From the creator

Keeping your accounts protected using different 2-step verification methods, including hardware security keys. Video includes Yubikey demonstration, as well password good practice and other security advice. My own security keys are Yubikey 5C models, which you can find on Amazon.com here: https://amzn.to/3ubKrcs and on Amazon.co.uk here: https://amzn.to/2ZyDJlz (paid affiliate links). Note that I have no association with Yubico, and that I purchased the keys I use. However, note that an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases when you click on either of the Amazon links.
