You can also have an unlimited amount of so-called SafeNotes and while I have never tried to set one up with information that is say 5 or 6 pages long, I don't think each SafeNote has a size limit, either and if it does it's more than enough. I have things like all my credit card numbers with expiry dates, CV codes and corresponding phone numbers in such SafeNotes, also my bank accounts including the bank's institution, transit numbers, routing and swift codes. I have a SafeNote called Gift Cards where I write down the numbers and codes of gift cards I sometimes buy with points, how much the card had on it, when I bought it and when I used it. I also include what it was I bought and what, if any, the balance remaining is. I have SafeNotes for my tech gear, e.g. Lenovo, HP, Sonos etc. and here I have written down everything I ever bought, when I bought it and for how much, serial numbers of printers, laptops and on and on. I have of course a SafeNote called Apple where I have my 2-factor authentication recovery key, I now added the advanced data protection recovery key and of course in there as well are the serial numbers of my wife's and my iPhones, our Apple TV, iPad etc. I use a random 14-character master password for Roboform which I also change from time to time and use nowhere else, Roboform data on their servers is of course encrypted and I also use 2-factor authentication which for Roboform means if anybody including myself tries to sign in on a new device, I get an email with a 6-digit OTP (one-time password) code. I feel it's more or less as safe as it can be. I also have a Yubiko hardware security key which looks a little bit like a small USB drive, but thinner with a button on it which you press to authenticate. I haven't really started using it much yet, but plan to set it up for my new Lenovo ThinkPad and Lenovo small form factor desktop computer in the office as an additional way to sign in (I also have set up a PIN and on my laptop I can also use face recognition and fingerprint). I still have to explore all the other uses for it because it does also support 2-factor authentication for Dropbox and many more services, currently I am using the Microsoft Authenticator app to generate my Dropbox 2-factor authentication code. Below is first a link to an article from The Verge about security keys and then an Amazon Canada link for the Yubiko which is compatible with USB-A ports, but they do make a UsB-C version as well: The best hardware security keys for two-factor authentication - The Verge <https://www.theverge.com/2019/2/22/18235173/the-best-hardware-security-keys-yubico-titan-key-u2f> Yubico YubiKey 5 NFC - Two Factor Authentication USB and NFC Security Key, Fits USB-A Ports and Works with Supported NFC Mobile Devices - Protect Your Online Accounts with More Than a Password : Amazon.ca: Electronics <https://www.amazon.ca/Yubico-YubiKey-NFC-Authentication-USB/dp/B07HBD71HL/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=1E73BD6POHST6&keywords=yubikey&qid=1674409683&sprefix=yubico%2Caps%2C161&sr=8-1-spons&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzOU8wUUVST1RIQlpaJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNTY2MTE3M0pJS0NIVkxaMUdNRSZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNTczNDY3MUE0MDlPU0o5TEhSOSZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU&th=1> There is also a UsB-C version of this device available, but according to the article from The Verge it does not include NFC and they also mentioned that Yubiko was looking at making a version with a Lightning port. I would certainly not buy a Lightning version now considering that next year it is highly likely that the Lightning port finally disappears in favour of a UsB-C port and USB-C is certainly the way forward at least for many years to come.

Thank you. To tell you the truth, I'm kind of afraid to enable the feature for fear of losing the key. I believe that with OS 16.3 one can actually use some kind of physical recovery key, but as I have no idea of how this would work, I'm holding off on the feature, for now. You, however, are a brave man, "Charlie Brown." (smile).

I turned it on, it asks you to set up a recovery contact although I don't think it forces you to do so, but if you do they will get a text message and have to tap on "Agree" before they are confirmed as a recovery contact. Otherwise you do as far as I could tell set up a recovery key, it consists of a series of 28 random numbers and letters, 7 groups of 4 each. You have to write this down because once you tap on continue you have to re-enter that entire recovery key before it becomes active. Lastly, after I was all done my Advanced Data protection was still off so I tapped on it again and I was then told that I still hadn't updated my iPad and Apple TV and since setting it up on one device then applies the encryption to all devices signed in to that Apple Id, they all have to be updated to the latest OS version. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> <viphone@googlegroups.com <mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> > On Behalf Of M.

In addition, many Apple services use end-to-end encryption; your information is encrypted using keys derived from your devices and your device passcode, which only you know. For the highest level of cloud data security, you can turn on Advanced Data Protection (iOS 16.2 or later required; available only in the U.S., currently). With Advanced Data Protection enabled, not even Apple will not be access the data when it’s stored on the company’s servers. Advanced Data Protection uses end-to-end encryption on more data categories such as the following: • Device backup • Messages backup • iCloud Drive • Notes • Photos • Reminders • Safari bookmarks • Siri Shortcuts • Voice Memos • Wallet passes With Advanced Data Protection, your protected data can be decrypted only on your trusted devices, protecting your information even in the case of a data breach in the cloud. Not even Apple can access your information. Before you turn on Advanced Data Protection, you’ll be guided to set up at least one alternative recovery method: a recovery contact or a recovery key. With Advanced Data Protection enabled, Apple doesn’t have the encryption keys needed to help you recover your end-to-end encrypted data. If you ever lose access to your account, you’ll need to use one of your account recovery methods — your device passcode or password, your recovery contact, or recovery key — to recover your iCloud data. Your device passcode or password is the passcode on your iPhone or iPad, or the login password on your Mac that you set to protect your device and enable two-factor authentication. It’s also used to reset your Apple ID password and to recover your end-to-end encrypted data if you lose access to your account. A recovery contact is a trusted friend or family member who can use their Apple device to help you regain access to your account and data. They won’t have any access to your account, only the ability to give you a code to help you recover your account. Learn more about recovery contacts. A recovery key is a secret 28-character code that you can use, along with a trusted phone number and an Apple device, to recover your account and data. Learn more about recovery keys. To turn on Advanced Data Protection for iCloud, you need: • An Apple ID with two-factor authentication. • A passcode or password set for your device. • At least one account recovery contact or recovery key. If you don’t already have one, you’ll be guided to set one up when you turn on Advanced Data Protection. • Updated software on all of the devices where you’re signed in with your Apple ID: iPhone with iOS 16.2 iPad with iPadOS 16.2 Mac with macOS 13.1 Apple Watch with watchOS 9.2 Apple TV with tvOS 16.2 HomePod with software version 16.2 Windows computer with iCloud for Windows 14.1 Managed Apple IDs and child accounts are not eligible for Advanced Data Protection. How to turn on Advanced Data Protection for iCloud: You can turn on Advanced Data Protection on an iPhone with iOS 16.2, iPad with iPad OS 16.2, or a Mac with macOS 13.1. Turning on Advanced Data Protection on one device enables it for your entire account and all your compatible devices. On iPhone or iPad: 1. Open the Settings app. 2. Tap your name, then tap iCloud. 3. Scroll down, tap Advanced Data Protection, then tap Turn on Advanced Data Protection. 4. Follow the onscreen instructions to review your recovery methods and enable Advanced Data Protection. On Mac: 1. Choose Apple menu > System Settings. 2. Click your name, then click iCloud. 3. Click Advanced Data Protection, then click Turn On. 4. Follow the onscreen instructions to review your recovery methods and enable Advanced Data Protection. WARNING: If you use Advanced Data Protection, you’re responsible for your data recovery. Because Apple won’t have the keys required to recover your data, you’ll need to have a Recovery Contact or Recovery Key set up on your account. You can use these additional recovery methods to regain access to your data if you ever forget your password or lose access to your account. Note: If you choose to turn off Advanced Data Protection later, your iCloud data will revert to the standard level of security. Please help support MacDailyNews.
