In this video we explore how to make your outlook.com account more secure in 3 ways: 1) Adding a hardware U2F security key, 2) Linking the Microsoft Authenticator , and 3) Removing the requirement for a password. Microsoft is embracing a passwodless future.

In a previous video we detailed what was thought to be a flaw in adding a security key to outlook.com. Please see: Outlook Potentially Hackable with Yubikey    • Outlook Potentially Hackable with Yubikey  . This updated video (Hack Proof Your outlook.com) explains that full security of the hardware key is only available, if you remove the requirement for the password. This is a different approach from all other web based email systems: Gmail, Yahoo. AOL, Tutanota, Protonmail, etc. All of these email systems still require the use of a password, even after you add the hardware security key for authentication.
