Two-step authentication using a security key

You can use a security key that's compatible with the WebAuthn standard as a second factor for logging in to your account. To enable two-step authentication with a security key, you need a compatible browser and a compatible security key. After you enroll a new security key on your account, you are prompted to activate the security key whenever you log in.

To avoid being locked out of your account, you can enroll multiple security keys and multiple two-step authentication methods.

The following browsers are compatible with security keys:

  • Google Chrome for desktop version 67 and above
  • Mozilla Firefox for desktop version 60 and above
  • Google Chrome for Android version 73 and above
  • Mozilla Firefox for Android version 66 and above
  • Microsoft Edge version 18 and above
  • Opera version 54 and above
  • Safari技术预览83年或以后
