If you’re a journalist or news organization, you are likely at elevated risk of targeted attacks on your professional and personal accounts. This is a great year to finally bite the bullet and try a security key as at least one of your security options. Keep in mind that while authenticating with a security key is one of the strongest options for account security available, it’s not universally supported. So we recommend journalists also enable 2FA and then opt for security keys wherever possible. Check out our guide to comparing 2FA options and how to set them up.
We are always ready to assist journalists with digital security concerns. Reach out here, and stay safe and secure out there.
