New 2-Step Verification options for G Suite accounts

What’s changing

We’re updating how 2-Step Verification works for G Suite. This will make new 2-Step Verification methods available for some devices, and update the 2-Step Verification user interface on mobile and desktop devices. There are three key impacts:

New 2-Step Verification interfaces

Different screens on different browsers (Safari, Edge, etc.)

Expanded Bluetooth security key support

Who’s impacted

Admins and end users

Why you’d use it

We hope that these updates make 2-Step Verification easier to use. 2-Step Verification puts an extra barrier between your business and cybercriminals who want to access business data. Turning on 2-Step Verification is the single most important thing you can do to make your accounts more secure and protect your business.

How to get started

Admins: Use our Help Center to find out how to set up 2-Step Verification for your organization.

End users: No action needed.

Additional details

New 2-Step Verification interfaces: You may see new illustrations, text, and instructions in the images, dialogs in the 2-Step Verification flows when using a bluetooth or usb security key. See images below for examples of the types of changes.

Different screens on different browsers: You may see different flows on Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, and other browsers. Previously the service provider (Google) was responsible for showing these dialogs. Now the web browser is responsible. As a result, the flow may be different on each browser.

Expanded Bluetooth security key support: Bluetooth keys will start rolling out, and can be enabled with a flag on Linux.

Two step verification notifications stopped on desktop

Have you tried ---Settings >System >Notifications & Actions --- and checked through all the options listed ?
Click to expand...

If notifications aren’t showing even though they’re enabled then please ensure Quiet hours &/or Focus Assist isn’t enabled.

Yes, here's an example of some of my prominent phone examples, among others (My bank, Reddit, Firefox, etc.) from whom I expect to receive notifications, not to mention most recently. I do get Google Task notifications, along with MIcrosoft News, (local of course) but that's it

Link to Windows was just updated. Is it possible that has anything to do with it? I just checked the notifications within my Link to Windows desktop app. The notifications I'm expecting in the action center are listed there. I just noticed this, but that 'Customize task settings on Phone Link", but selecting that only deletes the task from the action enter

I don't know why I'm seeing this, and what Firefox has anything to do with it, particularly since that the only mention there that Firefox is recognized, & I only have 6 notifications in there at the moment

I Just got a notification from Verizon. Upcoming bill reminder. It figures that one would get thru. Let's see what happens from here. *Banghead
