Nothing is ever really going to solve man-in-the-middle attacks except end to end encryption. It has to be something agreed on by both parties, easy for the us

Nothing is ever really going to solve man-in-the-middle attacks except end to end encryption.
It has to be something agreed on by both parties, easy for the user to remember, and if they use it in multiple places and it ends up compromised they have all their eggs in one basket.
Other than that, I thought biometrics were a good idea. Retinal scans or finger-print scans and the like. The data still needs to be sent over the internet, so the encryption is a must.
Another thought, the machine the user is using is likely compromised as well.
Glad I'm not being paid to come up with a solution... it will be really interesting to see what they come up with though.
