Hi,
I am using the Administrator secret URL parameter. I am interested in using a security key to make my account more secure. I have few questions:

- Can I use security key with enabled Administrator secret URL parameter?
- I see there are different brands of security keys out there. Does it matter what I have?

Best,
ameran

By "security key" do you mean Two Factor Authentication? If so, it will work without a problem with the secret URL parameter.

I really don't have any advice on which one to use, I'm sorry.
