This video is part of the content for my book "Protecting Your Online Presence" - http://amzn.to/1jXcBSn. This video shows how to use the Yubikey 4 token in conjunction with the Yubico Personalization tool to get close to the benefits of two factor authentication when that option isn't supported by a site or service that you use.

To learn more about what is in the book, check out the other videos in this series or go to http://amzn.to/1jXcBSn to order your copy of the book today.
