Bought a $60 hardware key and it stopped a login from another country
I got a phishing email that looked real from my bank last month. I almost clicked the link but then remembered my new Yubikey. I plugged it in and the fake site just froze, it couldn't get past the key check. The next day my security app showed a blocked login attempt from a place I've never been. What other physical security tools do you guys use?

Got a spare key for backup?

Used to think it was overkill, @caseyw12. Locked myself out once and that changed my mind real quick.

My friend had the same thing happen last winter, @caseyw12. She locked herself out during a snowstorm and had to wait hours for a locksmith in the freezing cold. Now she keeps a spare key with her neighbor and another in a lockbox outside. That one bad experience made her totally change her whole system. What do you do for backup keys?
