Chalks posted:we've never had any issues with the ms authenticator, do you mean there might be an issue if you have no wireless internet and no phone signal but need to log in? we also have phone call auth as a fallback but obviously if you have no phone signal that's of no use either. Exactamundo. Not having to do additional comms for 2FA feels nice/ fairly reassuring, to be quite honest about it.

Volmarias posted:Your bank cannot tell you to, quote, "git gud," and it also allows you to handle an incident far more directly than blizzard ever would. Your bank has a physical presence where you can make a scene, flecks of spittle flying everywhere, as you scream about your extremely secure password of "lmao1234" being guessed and your SMS based token getting intercepted. i was going to say that banks tell people to "git gud" with various stuff all the time, they already try to select for a certain type of customer for things like checking accounts but people who are not "gud" just end up making the bank money via overdraft and monthly service fees, e.g. from not having enough direct deposit income, which ends up excluding whole classes of customers who cant afford $30 here or there or $7 per month because they dont have the option for direct deposit

I don't think the push notification to phone model is particularly good (doesn't prevent competent phishing), but better than loving sms. our bank industry 2fa app is push based, but with extra information, which I like. for instance, as you are shopping online, when you press “pay” on some site you’ll get transferred to bank payment gateway. step 1 will be to log in - you have 4 digit random pin on screen to compare with your 2fa app. once you have logged in, you’re on bank’s payment screen, showing to whom this is, how much, etcetra, and you confirm that with secondary (longer) password in the 2fa app, where in addition to checksum pin you’ll also have “€420.69 to Funko.com”. olds still somehow get scammed, but imo the only way to stop olds from being scammed is to take any possessions away from them

PSD2 is pretty much removing any option for “just sms” in most eu countries, be it on banks (pretty much every bank here demands you install their app to act as TOTP) or credit cards(hard code and then sms). Sadly I think it’s clearly written to not let customers use more strong systems like fido2 but only the bank apps.

i still do not understand why orgs insist on having their own bespoke TOTP apps. there's zero advantage to doing so and i mean poo poo if you want to do your own app then why not also do push MFA? that said i guess they're still better than SMS...at least until an org producing a bespoke TOTP app has their back-end popped and effectively invalidates everything...

a big offender for that bullshit is the AU federal government. a few years ago they centralised all gov services (centrelink, medicare, ATO, etc.) under a single portal. then they introduced MFA using either SMS or their bespoke TOTP app. the app is absolute trash, so much so that it doesn't support transferring to a new phone (you have to disable MFA and then re-enable it on the new phone). i literally only use the MFA app once a year when i login to file my tax return, it's the most useless app ever and yet from what i've heard it's been a giant PITA for the fed gov. edit: that bullshit MFA app aside i've never once had a single issue filing my taxes via the portal and as far as im concerned i've a flawless record with online filing via the ATO both before the portal with eTax and with the portal. never once filed a paper return, drat it's good when AU finally does some poo poo right!

TOTP being carried from device to device(eg Authy or ms authenticator) is convenience at the expense of security. PSD2 seems to demand to reenroll devices rather than migrate too as every bank app I have does the same.

in a general sense convenience is security, if the alternative is users choosing not to do it at all. i am absolutely not putting 20 things into google authenticator and spending a whole day resetting things when i get a new device again

(So that transfer qrcode had better only work once, too) The original open standards worked well enough when people were carrying a single physical token, not so much once everybody had a dozen software implementations on their phone. People already have bank apps installed on their phone, they should just be confirming actions through push notifications to the app. Sassafras fucked around with this message at 21:35 on Mar 18, 2021 |

Generally (but not universally) there's a reason why premium options command a premium, and now "good old free TOTP" doesn't particularly cut it.

They could at least let you add a new device before removing the old one. It would also be nice if they would stop blocking fido on mobile browsers. It would work just fine if you didn't actively block it.

totp accounts stored in duo mobile can be transferred to a new device when you set a password for your entire "account", which i think mine is 256 random characters, i forget the exact procedure and requirements despite just doing it last month i think the backup itself (icloud or itunes) had all of the totp keys saved too, encrypted with my password, and when restoring the backup onto new phone i had to enter that password to reactivate all of the totp entries duo-specific 2fa auth has to be re-enrolled on a new device though

SSO for work / other principal identity sites, I don't care what people do with their lousy one-off site-specific personal accounts.

On the other hand, all banking authentication is done via NemID which is a Nordic company that does a whole lot of stuff related to 2FA which gets tied to the equivalent of the social security number.
