Is Yubikey the ultimate safety device???

Do repost and rate:

It happens very often in the world of cryptocurrencies to see that your account has been hacked. In most cases, for not establishing the relevant security protocols.

Using a secure password is no longer valid and especially since we almost always leave it saved in the browser, which allows any invader that has entered our PC to access any platforms that we normally use.

Despite being an incipient technology, there is currently a hardware called Yubikey. I think only Kraken has publicized it, as far as I know of course, it may be that on some other pages the use of this device is allowed.

Yubikey establishes a single-use double authentication factor for the page or platform of your choice, if it is enabled of course. The normal thing is to use Google Authenticator or our mobile phone, but what happens if we lose it or do not have it at hand? We are screwed.

Yubikey is a kind of portable USD Drive that once connected to your computer or smartphone, just at the moment of logging in, allows, by pressing a button incorporated on its surface, to protect our account with the double authentication factor. It is for a single use, every time we want to log in that page we will have to use Yubikey.

The device is somewhat expensive and does not have many advantages over Google Authenticator either. It is up to everyone to invest in security.

The only thing I can recommend is that you have your funds segregated in several wallets and do not leave all your capital in just one, no matter how safe it may seem.
