This would be the equivalent of having 2 passwords, one of which you change every-time you use it and it's fully random.
- dtjohnnymonkey 14y agoSo just to rephrase it to make sure I understand, it's more secure because even if the OTP is compromised, the entire system is not compromised, is that correct? However, if the original secret is compromised (K), then could an attacker easily generate OTPs?
