For people who want to make their Google accounts extra safe, there’s a special program called the Google Advanced Protection Program, or APP for short. It’s like having a super-strong lock on your digital life. This program is great for folks who might be extra likely to face online attacks, like celebrities, politicians, or anyone who just wants to be super secure.
Google knows some people might have found joining the APP a bit tough because it used to need special security keys. But now, they’re making it easier! Google says, “Hey, you don’t need those keys anymore – you can use a passkey instead!” A passkey is a type of safety tool that’s built right into your phone. It’s like having a secret handshake with your Google account that keeps the bad guys out.
Anyone who’s got a phone can join the APP now just by using these passkeys. It’s way more convenient because most of us are used to having our phones around all the time, anyway!
This change is big news for anyone who’s serious about protecting their private stuff online. It’s like giving people a stronger, more convenient shield against hackers and cyber-bullies.
