In Norway we have "BankID" which is a 2FA solution for authentication and digital signature. It started as a normal 2FA solution with a hardware token combined with username (social security number) and password. A few years ago they introduced a mobile solution where you don't get a SMS or get prompted by an app, but rather it's some kind of functionality on the SIM card. Very convenient and works on all banks, most finance institutions and everywhere else you need to sign things.
- fnordsensei 9y agoLately there have been attacks on BankID in Sweden. They call you up and pretend to be from your bank, then ask you to open your BankID app and verify your identity so that they can share some very important information with you. You open your app, and ID yourself, thereby logging them into your bank account on their end.
