FAQ 

7.1.

 

How do I install the FIDO2 security key to my computer? 

Answer

You don't need to install it, it’s plug and play. It works with 

Windows, 

macOS, Linux, Chrome OS. 

7.2.

 

I have two gmail accounts, how many FIDO2 security keys 

do I need to protect two gmail account. Do I need 2 keys? 

Answer:  You  can  use  one  FIDO2  security  key  with  multiple  accounts,  but  that  is  not 

recommended.  Regardless  of  if  you're  protecting  one  gmail  account,  or  two  -  you  should 

register multiple keys (if the service allows it). That way, if you lose your key, or it's damaged, 

or it's stolen, you will still have a backup key ready to use. 

7.3.

 

What should I do if I lost my FIDO2 security key? 

Answer: Just go to the website your key already registered. On the 2-step verification tab or 

similar tab, delete the device. Two FIDO2 security keys are recommended, one for normal use, 

the other for backup.
