2FA is vulnerable and this method give information to Google regarding your other devices; which it will now tie into its analysis of who and where you are, where you go, who you know, and all other issues Google should not be monitoring
Hey bud great video, thank you for the tips. I'll give you a tip in return. The mic you are using is meant to have the audio come in the front, not the top. So you would want to flip the mic up and speak into the front of the mic. Just make sure you are speaking into the front and not the back. Your audio will improve GREATLY if you do that. I'm a professional audio engineer so recording and mixing is my profession! Anyway, just a friendly tip. Thanks again for the video!
Just to point out. I had zero issues with the audio in this video. Found absolutely no issue hearing/understanding everything he said. I think tips are fine. Just wanted to point out the quality was great 👍
@@tnekkralc8080 Noone is saying it wasn't. The audio quality is not great. Maybe to you, it sounds ok. There is nothing wrong with the audio the way it is tho. Never said there was. Did you even read the comment? I didn't criticize the man! I gave him a professional sound tip just like he is giving up professional tips. I was returning the favor. No one said anything like that. 🤦🏻♂
@@matt_nyc_audioengineer Okay. Thanks. You (and the other guy) heard things that I didn't hear. Not sure if you had your volume on blast or what. LoL. Great tips. Just try not to get offended when others leave feedback, TOO. LoL
I don’t trust Google with my privacy, and definitely not with my emails. I have one anonymous Google account just for my TH-cam, and a totally different anonymous account for Google maps, that’s it. Great channel by the way 👍🏼
How did you get around the age restrictions on Google account if you haven't confirmed age through a card purchase etc please?....been limited to under 13 vids on TH-cam because I won't provide a card to confirm ID?...have you had this issue too?😊
@@kittin9018 create a google account with an appropriate age. if it's mandatory due to the country you live in spoof your location with a VPN or TOR. the verify with card mechanism only serves to connect yet another unique identifier to your on-line fingerprint. google couldn't care less about your kids, but if they don't separate them, they can't use watch and search data to focus advertising, because that is illegal to do to children in most countries.
hey! really good and educational video! incredibly useful for anyone. one crucial thing though; don't use your mobile phone number for 2FA or as a recovery method in general! whatever you do, don't do it! don't use your phone number as a recovery method anywhere on any platform at all! it allows for "sim-swapping" attacks to take place and be used to gain access to everything you use your phone number for. keep this in mind wherever you sign up! you should make a video about this and "sim-swapping" in general. ❤️
I was already doing all this but it never hurts to revisit things just to stay current on security. Great video -- short, concise, clear and good visual examples provided. No fluff, no crap, just solid information that everyone should know. Just one thing ... follow Matthew Kutoloski's advice on your mic. Some people watch YT videos on their phones, some of us use much more complicated equipment. I'm one of the latter.
i've recently been attacked by who knows who in the online world, and have been getting emails about suspicious people trying to sign in, or successfully signing into my accounts. i've had to outright shut down two accounts on different websites, and am going full blown max security on everything. its been annoying to deal with this new security stuff, but i feel safer and less vulnerable.
@@JenniferIsselPhilly Don't back ANYTHING to a server that you do not control. Google, Micropuke, Apple, Yahoo, doesn't matter. You want YOUR data to remain under only YOUR control. Unfortunately most of John Q do not possess backup skills because they have no way of retaining reliable back up data.
Fantastic!! A 2FA key is what I need. I was thinking that today. I forgot my password to my Nordpass. What a headache. Still waiting for them to contact me. Good thing I have biometrics on the phone. I've been wishing I had one on my laptop.😁
A good video. Too many people have insecure Gmail accounts. I personally don't use Gmail. I was forced to use one for TH-cam way back to comment on TH-cam but if I could remove the connection to my hotmail account I would.
I have 2 email accounts for the Tube. They are never used for anything else. Only sent mail to them on the first day each was created. No traffic to search.
I Always appreciate the easy to follow format & encouraging tone of your demeanor🙏🏾 If you were my teacher when I went to IT school, l would've actually learned something and had a career instead of getting jerked around for over 2ys!🤷🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ The school wanted my program's money much more than they wanted to teach me😒🤑
Great information! I understand that these measures help secure my data from 3rd party access, but my only question is, do these steps prevent Google from accessing or using my information? I doubt it, yet they are arguably one of the most egregious offenders of data privacy.
Thanks! I've been thinking about a 2FA physical key, and this has solidified my intent! Quick question, can one buy a fancy fingerprint 2Fa key as primary device and then use a cheaper device with fewer features as a backup? Also, must the 2 devices be from the same mfgr?
Would you update his video? Does YubiKey not work with Google? At this point - two years from the making of this video - is it a problem to use a phone number and fingerprint for 2FA-can they be stolen? Please make an updated video on security at home for non-IT people.***I don’t want to hear from IT folks who fear monger or go on rants** I would like an updated video from the person who made it. ❤
Yeah, and now that I watched it I'm getting dozens more suggested videos about how we're all gonna get hacked unless we use Yubikeys. Yubikey affiliate channels must be the latest money-making scheme.
Correct. RIGHT NOW!!! We all never should have opened accounts on evil platforms in the first place, but that's a longer fix and you'll have to look that up elsewhere. (Find an explanation of this sentence, and learn about who said it: {To understand the concept, you should think of “free” as in “free speech,” not as in “free beer.”} Your treasure hunt begins right after you make the stopgap temporary fix from this video.)
What do you do about wear and tear on the yubikey? If I kept it on my key chain, I’d image a year later it would fall apart or be gross. You should make a video on tips for transporting your yubikey on the go.
Interesting idea! I've had mine on my keychain for a couple years now and haven't had any problems. But again, I think that speaks to the importance of having a backup that ISN'T kept in your pocket and scratched up all the time :)
I was concerned about the same issue - I use a "Cozy" USB-A cap > both it & the Yubikey are attached to the same small metal ring and the Cozy is flexible, fits snug on the male USB-A tab. So far, works great.
You also have to be critical, not only to negative way like thinking "this guy selling products, we have to be careful with anything he said", but also to positive way, because all he was saying was logic in my opinion, you can also double check to other creator, someone who just bought it, or simply neutral AI like ChatGPT, personally I don't have yubi-key yet, but doesn't mean whoever bought it cannot give it's own opinion.
Hi Josh, I'm considering the final step in your helpful video. Do you know how many keys I can program for the Google Advanced Security Plan? When I went to sign up, it seemed to default to two, however I have more. Thanks for advising.
After losing access to my gmail account in 2018, I knew I had to move to 2FA. I tried sending a physical letter to Google telling them what happened (and that the automated system refused to recognize me for some reason), but never received a reply from them. I lost 13 YEARS worth of email, and unfortunately, a link to someone close to me. (This also made me realize I need a minimum of TWO ways to contact people I care about, and not just via email.) Tough way to be forced into using 2FA, but now it seems every service is using it anyway.
Using 2 factor authentication is probably the best option for ordinary users. Remember, if you use a smartphone, please do this first before you switch to it & or have a new number. Change this before you switch to the newer number & get a codd sent to this or your email, if its easier. You could get locked out & if your partner is happy to use theirs as a back up, the choice to 2 FA will pop up on the screen. It'll be a nightmare otherwise, because it happened to me & my back ups weren't current... 😮
Hey guys, one great way to support this channel (and improve your own security) is to grab a 2FA key from Yubico, the sponsor of this video. Find the right key for you: geni.us/yubico-store
I don't agree that 2FA makes your email more secure. In fact, all they have to do is get your phones IM number and use your phone to access email. If it's on your phone.
Lots of XYZ-ers here helped by this because they already posess the required degree of proficiency. All greek to me, and will be to most elders. Probably time to unplug. Sorry to be cranky but completely overwhelmed by flying images, galloping speech, and internet jargon. Slowing it way down helped a little. On the bright side...thank you for no background music.😘
Step one - pick an impossible-to-remember password that you won't forget... Different from all the other impossible-to-remember passwords. And don't trust the browser's "remember me" prompt - because they DON'T...
Thank you very informative. I already have 2 step verification enabled and a strong password so I'm good right. Can I still get hacked with that. And how do you know if your account is hacked And even though I have 2 step verification on I don't receive codes when logging in. I should right. I also have backup codes
Your content is simply amazing. I would just want to ask you that is there any contacts app or something like that where we can sync and store our contacts on any cloud or something as currently we save our contacts on google which immediately syncs it to all devices. This would be a great work around to de-google ourselves.
i got my facebook account fully locked out from me by the person who stole it and my youtube and insta were banned bc of the person and i have 2 strikes for videos i never posted my self and my insta is perm banned so secure your accounts guys
Josh, My partner lives on her iphone and she refuses to use a password manager or any 2FA her reason is she doesn't want to complicate her life. Is there anything that can protect her phone but yet be simple. I believe she feels that there is no need for all this protection as it just complicates your life. She has access to one of my accounts and I had to change the password to something simple so she could remember it. Thanks for your help Jessica
I'm just extremely concerned as to what it says in the DUO description regarding security, it actually says in clear text that users that use DUO have ZERO TRUST!? That seems a little bit concerning if you ask me which I'm going to bet you definitely won't be, but it all seems very fishy to me, punn intended.
My email and TH-cam has been hacked for far too long. My Yubikey stopped working. Do they die after a few years? I have the Titan key which works the best. I was wondering if my keys went dead or if they got hacked. Do you have any idea? I keep getting the error message that you have tried to log in too many times only after touching it once. That is so weird to me. Do you know?
So if a buddy is at your house and sees your key in the front room on the table and as a joke knows your email and logs in on their phone...without telling you.
You can see my full setup video here: th-cam.com/video/fzUVrz0ixn8/w-d-xo.html As for backups, and I think I reference this in the video linked above, I recommend setting up your backup key at the same time you setup your primary, and then putting that backup key in a different, secure location.
Yeah but my mom was Grace just 4 more houses away! Im going to eonder if you knew that before I did because I'm new to this. Do you try to make a courtesy call to fix what you did wrong where driving Japan into it?
Can you talk about the yubikey primary and backup? Is it just two yubikeys set up independently or do. you do something to copy the contents of the primary onto the backup? I like the idea of yubikey but am afraid of losing it.
Hey there..thanks for the vid. Just want to ask how can I cancel my storage. I couldn't access my account anymore. Even phone verifications and alternate emails dont work. I don't want google to kwep on charging me. Thanks so much.
So basically, I'm back to being a 6 year old with a key hanging around my neck all the time. Because you think that I'm too stupid to NOT give out my password to other people / apps / programs. Right. Uh, no. Giving anyone a password to my accounts is the stupidest thing that most people do, to get their information or assets stolen.
Im sure its an amazing product, but how does one use this when signing in from their smart phone/ device that doesnt have a port to insert your tool? Alot of people today dont use desktop/laptop and only use their phone. If this isnt available for phones, thats a big percentage of the population being remived from this
I opened an email of a trusted friend. I was a docusign that required me to input my email and cellphone number as password. I thought twice, but did it anyway. Once It opened, I quickly realized that she was hacked. I called her to confirm. What should I do now???
2FA is vulnerable and this method give information to Google regarding your other devices; which it will now tie into its analysis of who and where you are, where you go, who you know, and all other issues Google should not be monitoring

How much did you pay for your yubikey?

Yubikeys cost anywhere from $25 (Security Key Series) to about $50 (5 Series).
All they have to do is use the built-in security on the phone itself. Like the fingerprint reader.

Awesome vid! I was going to buy the Yubikeys but the coupon is no longer valid 😞
Yeah but my mom was Grace just 4 more houses away! Im going to eonder if you knew that before I did because I'm new to this. Do you try to make a courtesy call to fix what you did wrong where driving Japan into it?
Thanks a million for this info!! ❤❤❤
Great Information i will check this out Thank You.
Glad it was helpful, Jay.
Can you talk about the yubikey primary and backup? Is it just two yubikeys set up independently or do. you do something to copy the contents of the primary onto the backup? I like the idea of yubikey but am afraid of losing it.
Hello all things thank you for this information because I get hacked all the time which one of the 2FA Do you recommend on Amazon thank you in advance
Really helpful and well explained - thanks
Love yubikey! I dont ever worry about my account being hacked
I’m glad to hear you use it!
Excellent video my account is now as secure as it can be big thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm moving away from Google thieves
Thanks very clear and precise
Glad it was helpful!
Never trust anybody who says " Trust Me '
So this was really an advertisement for yubi key lol
Hey there..thanks for the vid. Just want to ask how can I cancel my storage. I couldn't access my account anymore. Even phone verifications and alternate emails dont work. I don't want google to kwep on charging me. Thanks so much.
So basically, I'm back to being a 6 year old with a key hanging around my neck all the time. Because you think that I'm too stupid to NOT give out my password to other people / apps / programs. Right. Uh, no. Giving anyone a password to my accounts is the stupidest thing that most people do, to get their information or assets stolen.
It's correct to say don't use any email at all. PAPER almost 100% Safe
thanks
I missed something obvious: what is 2FA ?
Good advice. I'll do this, but first Imma get my $37 Million from the Nigerian prince who contacted me. Nyaah!
Good PROGRAMME sir
Im sure its an amazing product, but how does one use this when signing in from their smart phone/ device that doesnt have a port to insert your tool?
Alot of people today dont use desktop/laptop and only use their phone.
If this isnt available for phones, thats a big percentage of the population being remived from this
My question too! Sorry to see he didn't answer you. Have you been able to find an answer?
Seems like Google prompt will be alwasy the default even if you enable 2FA with authenticator app. Any workaround?
I believe we should all move away from Google asap. Yes I know I’m on TH-cam but if we did it would be a good thing
Thank you .
Thanks I use two factor on all my accounts and I constantly changing security updates every 5-6 months and I use a password manager
Thank you
You're welcome
I opened an email of a trusted friend. I was a docusign that required me to input my email and cellphone number as password. I thought twice, but did it anyway. Once It opened, I quickly realized that she was hacked. I called her to confirm. What should I do now???
