Google ‘Titan Security Key’ Now Available on Play Store

San Francisc: Google on Thursday made its line of two-factor authentication (2FA) device called “Titan Security Key” widely available for purchase through its Play Store for security conscious users. The full kit of the two-factor authentication token is priced at $50 and includes a USB key, a Bluetooth key and various connectors, the company said in a blog post. The key was announced by Google in July as a device to authenticate logins over Bluetooth and USB, offering significantly stronger security than a confirmation code. “For those who want the strongest account protection, we’ve long advocated the use of security keys for 2 step verification,” Sam Srinivas, Director of Product Management, Google Cloud wrote in a blog post. The “Security Keys” are available first in the US, followed by other regions. (IANS)
