X Security Keys Re-Enrollment Deadline - Accounts Locked After Nov 10

X is requiring users who use hardware security keys or passkeys for 2FA to re-enroll by November 10, 2025, as the platform retires the twitter[.]com domain. Failure to re-enroll will lock accounts until users re-enroll, switch 2FA methods, or disable 2FA. Authenticator apps are unaffected.

🎯CORTEX Protocol Intelligence Assessment

Business Impact: Account access interruptions could affect brand and customer operations using X for communications. Technical Context: Security keys were bound to twitter[.]com; re-enrollment binds keys to x[.]com to maintain FIDO assertions.

Strategic Intelligence Guidance

  • Audit organizational X accounts for hardware key enrollment status
  • Re-enroll all security keys on x[.]com before Nov 10 cutoff
  • Maintain backup 2FA methods for emergency access
  • Document ownership of social accounts under corporate identity governance
