IP address seems to be a factor but as someone pointed out above, "Locking a second-factor 'remember' cookie to an IP address is a newbie-level software design mistake" which I tend to agree. Problem is it does not seem to recognize my computer or device even though I only use one laptop.

Vanguard offers the option to send code "Only when Vanguard doesn't recognize my computer or device". Why would you want to reduce the security robustness of the login protocol by doing this? Best practice is to configure the account always to require 2FA. I do have to switch in and out of my company VPN during the day, is that the reason? But Vanguard should have put a cookie in my browser to recognize my device the next time I log in? This annoyance only happens to my Vanguard logins.

I have to go through the 2-step verification with Vanguard 9 out of 10 times even though I already set the frequency to send a security code in my account settings to "Only when Vanguard doesn't recognize my computer or device". Vanguard's 2FA implementation completely stinks. At least in my case with Firefox! Perhaps if I used a different browser it would be different. This setting doesn't exist for keys, so it ignores the public/remember checkbox. What I meant in my initial reply was that there's a place in security code configuration that you can choose the result of this public/remember question (i.e. I cleared the pop up and changed it to "remember", and regardless, the next log in it ignored my "remember" and made me use the key. Firefox was overlaying a pop up over the "public"/"remember" questions, so I missed those. When you are prompted to touch the Yubikey, are you asked this question? Where do you see that you are forced to use it "every time"?Įach time I sign in I am asked if I am signing in using a private or public device (by default, "public device" is selected - which is what I keep it at, since I prefer to always use two-factor authentication). Are you saying you can still log in without the key? Basically, my experience is once keys are registered, you have no choice, you must use it. So, I must use the key every time, without a choice. It forced me to "every time" and would not allow "recognized computer". I just converted to security key 2FA log in.

Unfortunately this option does not currently exist for security keys (as far as I can tell). Click the Edit link to the right of "Frequency." Now select Every time I log on and click the Continue button. You should be on the Security code settings page. In the "Security profile" section of the resulting page, click on Security code. Log in to your account, and select My Accounts > Profile & account settings from the menu bar on top of the page. It's easy to get 2-step verification every time on a recognized computer. I've asked Vanguard if there is a way to always require 2-step without any exceptions, but they say there is not. When they ask if I'm on a "public computer" I always say "yes" because, I don't want them to turn of 2-step verification for my computer.
