At least two banks here in Greece use a similar system (it's essentially a two factor authentication variant).
Connecting it via USB would defeat the whole purpose of this second trusted information channel, between the OTP device and the bank's customer.
- StavrosK 16y agoI think they all do, nowadays. The only reason I don't need a keyfob for my Alpha account is that when I opened it, 9 years ago, they didn't have keyfobs. Their password policy was retarded, though, it wouldn't accept a $ in the password. Of course, you can't do anything without the keyfob now other than view the balance and pay some bills, so it's okay.
