Researchers from King's College London conducted a survey among 600 people and found the majority of women were more likely to gain online security advice from friends and family than helpful internet resources. Dr Kovila Coopamootoo, lecturer in computer science, said it highlighted "the gender norms at play in online safety and the role that gender identity plays in staying safe online.”

Passwords, encryption keys, banking details and other sensitive data have been vulnerable to theft, according to a senior Google researcher. Daniel Moghimi discovered the "Downfall" vulnerability and its affects on Intel processors launched between 2015 and 2019.

So apparently, according to Yubico's CS, they accidentally placed a "normal", no-barcode Security Key into an "Enterprise Edition" packaging and told me not worry about it. They advised me to reset the key with ykman if I was still worried.

They're here! Not sure why I got the Enterprise Edition though... Seems the only difference is a bar code on the backside compared to having nothing on the normal version. #yubikey #yubikeys #yubico #CyberSecurity #OnlineSecurity #securitykeys #2FAkey #2fa

Your email provides "the keys to the kingdom," protecting and giving you access to banking logins, social media profiles, online memberships and more. One woman almost lost thousands of dollars to scammers who accessed her email, leaving her locked out of online accounts and receiving unsolicited letters from banks and credit card providers. Here's her story and how to keep your email account secure.

For actually using the hardware key on macOS login (not Apple ID), you need the more expensive @yubico 5 series keys as they support PIV. So don't buy the wrong key! If in doubt, and budget allows, get the 5 series.

And another common service to use 2fa hardware keys is @bitwarden. You need Bitwarden Premium to use it, not the free tier.

For those who want to use hardware security keys to secure your Apple ID, make sure you fulfil these requirements: all your devices need to support iOS 16.3, iPadOS 16.3, macOS Ventura 13.2, or later. They also ask you to register at least two hardware keys when you activate hardware security keys on your Apple ID.

Gonna be buying 2 hardware keys to up my online security game. Chose the @yubico more budget friendly, Security Key series—one USB-C, one USB-A. I also just read that Firefox 114 (June 2023) on macOS and AWS now supports FIDO2. Hope the setup is smooth sailing! Been wanting to use a hardware key for ages...

Bad news: The #RestrictAct isn't the only bill threatening to end the internet as we know it. There are now 5.

Good news: Fight for the Future has created a single action you can take to prevent them from becoming law. It only takes a couple of minutes. Do it now!

@Mer__edith #UK doesn't have any #OnlineSecurity at all.

Not only will people get jailed for refusal to surrender keys and passwords, violating their right to remain silent and not incriminate themselves, but #GCHQ is literally comitting #MassSurveillance against entire nations with neither #warrant nor declaration of war.

Thinking of stepping up my online security game. Gonna probably get 2x Security Key series from @yubico, and also a hardware aes 256 encrypted drive to store backups of important files like my password manager vault and 2FA recovery codes. Shortlisted hardware encrypted drives I'm looking at are: Samsung T7 series SSD or the Kingston Ironkey Locker+ 50 USB flash drive. Anyone has a similar setup or have recommendations? #OnlineSecurity #2fa #HardwareEncryption #IronKey #yubikey

New data shows that many people are still using weak and easily guessable passwords, such as "password" and "123456", leaving their accounts vulnerable to hacking.

Experts recommend using a password manager and creating strong, unique passwords that don't include personal information. Additionally, coupling passwords with two-factor authentication can provide added security for online accounts. #passwords #onlinesecurity #cybersecurity
