Tubikey for Digital Estate planning
My stepbrother passed away in March and left things in a mess. Accessing systems and cancelling services etc. was difficult to say the least.
So I've been thinking about how I should setup things for myself, or other older family members to make it easier for them/me when the time eventually comes.
So many systems now want to use your mobile device as a 2nd factor -either SMS message or email or an authenticator app. I have multiple authenticator apps, Google, Microsoft, etc. plus password safe like Bitwarden or OnePassword etc. and most people have their phone set to use biometrics to unlock. If you drop dead, how so the ones you leave behind get access to the bank, insurance, taxes, etc. to pay bills, mortgage, figure out what accounts you had, life insurance polocies etc.?
So I am wondering if I setup Yubikey as that second factor could I have a second one that was stored securely somewhere that could be used to access all of these things?
Has anyone done something similar? Seems like a universal problem as more and more systems use MFA etc.
