Are keychain generators common outside the US? I'm curious why physical measures like this aren't more common.

- bittersweet 16y agoThe situation in Holland is pretty good. Only 1 bank (Postbank) has a system where you can login with a username and password (instead of using a physical authenticator) but you still need to authorize payments etc via your mobile phone (textmessages). All the other banks have authenticators where you insert your debitcard and have to input your 4 digit code to login and make transfers. Transfers are usually instantaneously except to the aforementioned bank Postbank :-)
- warp 16y agoFor completeness: You can choose to receive Postbank authentication tokens either on your mobile phone, or a sheet of paper delivered by regular mail. (also, Postbank has been rebranded to ING Bank, "Postbank" as such no longer exists).
