how is the phone not a second factor?
- mwww 14y agoRublon replaces passwords with cryptographic keys that are partially stored on your phone. This is a completely new approach to user authentication.
- adgar 14y agoIt's not a completely new anything, it's a password on your phone.
- jrockway 14y agoBecause there is no first factor. You don't log into Dropbox or Google with only your OTP, you use a password and OTP. With the method above, you scan a code with your phone instead of using a password or OTP.
