Log into your computer with this secure ID card. Let's check this out
0:11
Dave Taylor here, and I'm looking at this. This is the Go Trust IDEM card. It's actually really cool
0:17
This is a public key cryptography card, which means that it looks like just a regular credit card
0:23
But there's all sorts of smarts inside and it uses public and private keys to do a handshake for security
0:30
Now from a security perspective this works with what's known as Fido, which is fast ID online
0:36
So it's Fido 2 and Fido 2 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
0:46
Not just for like second-factor authentication. All of this is really good, but it supports
0:52
Let's see. It works with ISO 7816 smart card ecosystems It is FIPS 140-2 level 3 certified and it also works with
1:02
PIV, PKI and other physical access systems. So that means for example, if you work at a federal office
1:09
They use PIV systems smart cards for all access control for all facilities
1:15
So you can actually download some Java card apps onto this and you could also use this to verify
1:21
That you have access to this top-secret facility, right? Cool all on this card now in terms of a little more mundane level
1:30
I can use this for things like logging into Windows through Windows
1:34
Hello, I can log into my Mac and I'm going to show you that in just a second
1:38
You can use this to log into Android or iOS devices pretty handy and any Fido enabled service
1:45
And again Fido is not the dog Fido is actually fast ID online. It's a whole protocol and system
1:53
Super secure stuff really pretty cool actually and services that support that include Google Dropbox Facebook box
2:01
Microsoft there's a lot of things you can use this for pretty handy, right
2:05
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
2:15
BLE Bluetooth low energy and it also works with NFC So if you have an Android phone that supports near-field communication
2:22
You can use that and have this actually help log you into that device cool now all well and good
2:29
Let me give you a demo. So here I am My Mac is not logged in and then all I'm gonna do is on the identity card
2:37
I'm gonna push the edge to wake it up and There's a little blue light that comes on and then that should log me in here
2:45
And I'm logged in how cool is that? Right? So no worries about super complicated passwords
2:51
No worries about forgetting passwords. No worries about key sniffers No worries about cameras watching you typing in all of that is sidestepped by having a secure ID card
3:02
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
3:10
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
3:20
Secure ID card charger. You just simply slip the card in plug this into whatever you need
3:26
Generally, it takes about two hours for a full charge and that charge it will now work for 600 uses
3:33
Or it'll be on standby for 120 days So basically I would say is if that the very first day of every month you plug it in and charge it while you're having
3:42
Lunch, you'll never ever have to think about it again So really cool
3:47
And again What makes this really interesting is that you don't need to have really complicated
3:53
Password because you have this instead and this doesn't just store a password or anything like this
3:58
Like I said, this is a public key cryptography system. It's basically a computer that's on a credit card
4:06
So what happens is that the system challenges the card and the card generates a response
4:12
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
4:22
There's a lot more ways someone can actually snag that password or trick you out of it
4:26
In fact over 50% of fortune 1000 companies say they've had issues with people giving up passwords to secure areas
4:35
Which then means that the computer systems can be violated or data stolen or all sorts of bad things
4:42
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
4:51
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, you know
5:00
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
5:07
You know what I'm talking about So really not much else to talk about other than the price and this is actually quite
5:13
Affordable if you really want to ratchet up the security at your facility or with your services, right
5:18
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
5:28
It's pretty darn important But before we get to the price, I'm gonna ask if you can go ahead and subscribe to my channel
5:35
Really appreciate when you do that, it's one button just click that button and subscribe awesome now
5:41
Okay, this is the go trust. I dem card and it is
5:46
$60 at amazon.com and it's a pretty interesting device if nothing else
5:51
It might be worth getting just so you can experiment and try out different ways
5:55
You can use this and different ways this little tiny credit card can help you stay secure
6:01
And with that I think I am gonna go ahead and charge it and I'm gonna log back in which means I'll catch you
