One question I have that the article didn't answer, can you set up multiple physical keys? Can I create a backup and store it in a bank safety deposit box? I believe the current Fido process let's you do so, but does the new advanced version?
- dgacmu 9y agoYes. You can have many keys associated, just as with normal Fido. I have five -- I keep one in each laptop, one on my keychain, and two securely stored. (For more information, if you look at the program page, it also specifically mentions keys, plural - https://landing.google.com/advancedprotection/ https://landing.google.com/advancedprotection/ ) In addition to the Wired article, there's a Google blog post about it: https://www.blog.google/topics/safety-security/googles-strongest-security-those-who-need-it-most/ https://www.blog.google/topics/safety-security/googles-stron...
- dredmorbius 9y agoFrom earlier discussion, if I recall correctly, you'd have the option of creating a set of one-time passwords as well. Details remain somewhat vague as to having multiple credentials, or managed accounts (though the corporate service -- Google Domains or whatever it's called, should allow an administrator some options).
- camiller 9y agoI know the current 2-factor auth allows backup one time passwords, but it specifically says in the article that the advanced protection does not allow the one time passwords. I was just curious if the advanced protection also limited the number of hardware tokens you could have.
- dredmorbius 9y agoThanks for that, and good question.
