Google has made it a little easier for those at more risk of targeted online attacks to enroll in its Advanced Protection Program for Google accounts. Now users can set it up with a single passkey — using the built-in biometric authentication of a Pixel phone or iPhone — instead of the two physical security keys the company previously required.

The Advanced Protection Program is aimed not at normal users but people like those working on political campaigns or journalists with sensitive information to protect. When it launched, the company required two physical security keys to activate it, and one of those keys plus a password to log in after that.

Google changed the feature in 2023 to allow users to sign in with just a passkey — a passwordless login method that enables users to securely sign in to their accounts, apps, and services using built-in authentication on their devices. But you’d still need the two physical security keys to actually set it up.

To turn on the program, you can go to Google’s Advanced Protection Program page and click “Get started,” then the page will guide you through setup. At the end, you’ll have an option to set up with a passkey or a physical security key. The company also requires recovery methods like your phone number and an email address or a second passkey in case you get locked out of your account.

It’s very easy to do — in fact, I just did it myself. All I had to do was point my iPhone at a QR code in my browser and authenticate with Face ID.
