Or, I keep using single factor because services MFA implementation sucks tremendously, and as per service agreements service is liable in any security compromise case.
Frankly, most of MFA is security masturbation, is nowhere near to being a real solution, not even a real problem. Its just neat from a technical standpoint (if done well, which nearly never happens).
A minimum of 2 registered u2f keyfobs, that's all you need to make it usable and safe. Nobody does it, and trusts people either backup their otp codes or never lose or break phones. Ridiculous.
- ocdtrekkie 7y agoMFA is always better than single factor. At the very least it makes drive by/automated attacks significantly harder. Everything you read about SIM jacking and the like is at bare minimum, much harder than hacking your password.
- brnt 7y agoFrom a users perspective, MFA is nearly never better than single factor. Attacks are services responsibility anyway.
