Google Titan Security Key

Keeping all your financial account details, usernames and passwords safe is not easy if you regularly access them using your smartphones and other devices. For this reason, two-factor authentication is a must. While systems which use SMSes can be easily hacked, physical objects cannot be easily hacked. This is where the Titan Security Key from Titan could prove to be an asset. The key is in the form of a pair of USB and Bluetooth-based keys, and these need to be physically present when you need to log in.

The tech company’s own employees have been using them from early 2017, to great effect. Not even one of its 85,000-plus members of the staff have been phished since the product has been deployed. The Titan Security key can be easily attached to a keyring, and it works with a wide range of apps and services as the USBs and the Bluetooth-based keys are built on FIDO open standards.
