Having recently heard about what happened to Boogie2988's channel, I've decided to make this vlog video for anyone who has a Google or YouTube account. Not only can you secure your account with a phone app and 2 factor authentication, but you can buy a USB key for a hardware based protection.

It can't be just any USB stick though, if you want to secure your account with a USB stick, it needs to be a Fast IDentity Online (FIDO) Alliance compliant USB device and use an account that is also FIDO compliant.

Search online for U2F or FIDO USB security key for more information.

Stay safe, stay secure.
