AskDaveTaylor BEHIND THE SCENES with the Mevo Start

And then I will edit it, I will post it to YouTube, I'll go back here on Facebook, and I'll actually add a link, and you can see how much we do in post to make these videos look good

All right, so I'm using a Mivo product, and you can see on my phone, this is giving me a preview, but the phone isn't actually part of the review

So I'm going to just sort of hide it on the side here. That should work

I have a remote control so that when I'm ready, I can get my video camera going, because I'm not going to use

use this feed I have a camera just behind it I have a wired microphone and I have to crawl up my

shirt all the stuff that happens behind the scenes you'd be surprised at studios where they've

gotten very savvy that like having a guy putting a microphone on a young woman's blouse

not such a great thing so they've gotten very savvy about letting you do your own

micing but we don't need to do that either let's see so Well, let's see. Everything looks good. I have a monitor behind me so I can see what's on my video camera

And I guess it's framed okay. It's a little tight on the top, but I think that'll work out okay

So what I'm going to do is with my remote control, I'm going to go ahead and start the recording

Now, I have a standard routine that I do for my videos where I do a couple of second intro, then I cut to my intro titles, then I cut

then I cut back to the actual video that I'm doing, and I will be actually demonstrating this secure ID card

by logging into my Mac with it. So I'll also be spinning the computer around so you'll be able to see

So you have a little ringside seat here. All the fun, none of the hassle of my cats attacking you

So that's all kind of nice. All right, so for a couple minutes

I'm not going to be looking at this camera. I'm going to be looking at that camera. So my eyes will be off

and in the background I can see how, dog is going crazy in the snow. You don't get to see that either. Sorry. So we're going to get

started. So let's get this recording and then I just need to sort of hide things because I

don't want that in the shot. So here we go. And by the way, the microphones have an automatic

gain so I create some sound prior to starting to talk and that mutes the background sounds a bit

so it all works out better. But that's why you hear me laughing just before I start

It's not because I'm going crazy. Although, who knows? Maybe I'm going crazy. But we'll just proceed and see how this goes

One, two, and... Does this look like something that will log you into your computer

Let's find out. We'll take that one again. And log into your computer with this secure ID card Let check this out Now it better So now that my intro

And right now we'd be running the regular sort of video sequence. And I have a bunch of notes just below the camera

So it's going to seem like I know a lot about this product. And I know some about it

But it's going to make me sound pretty smart, hopefully. So we're going to go

So. One and Dave Taylor here, and I'm looking at this

This is the GoTrust IDEM card. It's actually really cool. This is a public key cryptography card, which means that it looks like just a regular credit card

but there's all sorts of smarts inside, and it uses public and private keys to do a handshake for security

Now, from a security perspective, this works with what's known as FIDO, which is Fast ID Online

So it's Fido2 and Fido2 U2F, and that means that it works with a whole lot of services

And not only that, but you can use it for logging in, not just for like second factor authentication

All of this is really good. But it supports, let's see, it works with ISO 7816 smart card ecosystems

It is FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certified. And it also works with PIV, PKI, and other physical access systems

So that means, for example, if you work at a federal office, they use PIV systems smart cards for all access control for all facilities

So you can actually download some Java card apps onto this, and you could also use this to verify that you have access to this top secret facility, right

Cool. All on this card. Now, in terms of a little more mundane level, I can use this for things like logging into Windows through Windows Hello

I can log into my Mac, and I'm going to show you that in just a second

You can use this to log into Android or iOS devices. Pretty handy

And any Fido-enabled service. And again, Fido is not the dog. Fido is actually fast ID online

It's a whole protocol and system. Super secure stuff. Really pretty cool, actually

And services that support that include Google, Dropbox, Facebook, Box, Microsoft. There's a lot of things you can use this for

pretty handy, right? And if you are already in a facility where you have an ID badge, you can

easily slip this into that pocket, and it'll still be close enough because it uses what they

know call BLE Bluetooth Low Energy. And it also works with NFC. So if you have an Android phone

that supports near field communication, you can use that and have this actually help log you

into that device Cool Now all well and good Let me give you a demo So here I am My Mac is not logged in and then all I going to do is on the identity card I going to push the edge to wake it up And there a little blue light that comes on

And then that should log me in here and I'm logged in

How cool is that, right? So no worries about super complicated passwords

No worries about forgetting passwords. No worries about key sniffers. No worries about cameras watching you typing in

All of that is sidesteped by having a secure eye. card. So pretty handy. Now, this is actually powered by a battery. And again, you look at this and you're like, how the heck do they squeeze all that into this card? It's kind of magic. But it does require charging. So this comes with a charger. How about that? So this is a secure ID card charger. You just simply slip the card in, plug this into whatever you need. Generally, it takes about two hours for a full charge. And that charge, it will now work for six

600 uses or it'll be on standby for 120 days. So basically, I would say that the very first day of every month, you plug it in and charge it while you're

having lunch, you'll never, ever have to think about it again. So really cool

And again, what makes this really interesting is that you don't need to have really complicated

password because you have this instead. And this doesn't just store a password or anything like this

Like I said, this is a public key cryptography's. system. It's basically a computer that's on a credit card. So what happens is that the system

challenges the card and the card generates a response and that's different every single time you use

it. So yes, if someone gets this, then they have access. But think about this. If you're using

a typed password, there's a lot more ways someone can actually snag that password or trick you out

of it. In fact, over 50% of Fortune 1,000 companies say they've had issues

with people giving up passwords to secure areas, which then means that the computer systems can be violated

or data stolen or all sorts of bad things. With something like this

if you know you've lost your card, you just let IT know or you go yourself

and you just disable it, and now it doesn't work at all. And someone just has basically a really funky-looking piece of plastic

So really cool, very modern, very like sort of James Bond sort of thing

a little bit maybe less exciting than a retina scan, but less scary than a retina scan

If you've seen all the James Bond movies, you know what I'm talking about. So really not much else to talk about other than the price

and this is actually quite affordable if you really want to ratchet up the security at your facility

or with your services, right? You could use this for all sorts of ways

to ensure that your remote workers are really who they say they are

and that they really should have access to all of this data and information It pretty darn important But before we get to the price I going to ask if you can go ahead and subscribe to my channel Really appreciate when you do that

It's one button. Just click that button and subscribe. Awesome. Now, okay, this is the GoTrust IDEM card, and it is $60 at Amazon.com, and it's a pretty

interesting device. If nothing else, it might be worth getting just so you can experiment and try out different

ways you can use this and different ways this little tiny credit card can help you stay secure and with that

I think I am going to go ahead and charge it and I'm going to log back in which means I'll catch you

in my next video and that's it so basically one of the things I try to do with my videos is I try to have a

single continuous or continuous take and that one this one went pretty smoothly there was only a couple

of little stumbles but there are times when when I'm halfway through my video and suddenly a cat shows up

or something doesn't work, or what really drives me bonkers is when I'm in the middle of giving a demo

and for some reason it's just not functional at that moment. And this just happens

There are times I throw the whole things away. There are times that my daughter steps into the camera and says

hi, dad. Hello, ma'am. So she didn't do that during a live video, which I appreciate

But, you know, really, there's not a lot of editing, That's one of the great things community

about doing a continuous shot like that. And this is another example of what would drive me bonkers

if I was recording and my daughter's phone went off. So let's see where we are

So I thought you might also enjoy it. Let me stand up. Let me give you a quick tour of what I'm seeing, right

So I'm turn this around. And I'm going to zoom out. And so here's what I'm seeing, right

So here's the camera. And we'll zoom in. on that you can see my notes just below it and what I do with my notes is I try to just have sort

of bullet point items so that I can say things like ISO 7816 without actually ending up thinking

about the wrong one and then if I zoom out further you can see I have lights and there's really

you can't see anything behind the lights because they're so bright but I have that specifically

because I'm sitting next to a window and windows are nice and bright and it's very pretty

And in fact, here you can now see our dog cavorting in the snow

But the problem with it is that it ends up being really bright

So it's really hard to compete. So I'm going to go ahead and spin down, but I hope this was fun and entertaining and interesting

So leave me some comments and some feedback and I will catch you in my next

next live stream
