Security Keys on Coinbase
Security keys are the gold standard of modern account security, and browser and device manufacturers are still in the process of expanding support for additional devices. To ensure maximum compatibility with as many devices and platforms as possible, we’re rolling out support for security keys gradually — starting with web and then extending to our mobile apps and Login with Coinbase.
You don’t have to wait to start protecting your accounts that support U2F, though. Most security keys will also work out of the box with your Gmail, Facebook, Dropbox, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and more. You can add this heightened level of security for your account with the touch of a button, rather than entering 6-digit codes sent to you over SMS or through a smartphone application.
We’re always working to offer the most advanced security features for our customers. When those features are simple to use and set up in seconds, it’s even better. We hope as many people as possible are able to take advantage of security keys to protect their accounts across the web, giving them even more peace of mind when using Coinbase.
Coinbase operates at the forefront of internet security. If you enjoy challenges like making strong security simple and convenient for the next billion crypto users, we’re hiring.
