I appreciate startup self-promotion as much as the next guy buuuuuut are you saying multi-hundred billion dollar internet companies shouldn't implement their own 2f auth? they should instead trust the security of their hundreds of millions user to you? Really?
- MichaelApproved 12y agoI think Authy is saying that even multi-hundred billion dollar internet companies get it wrong, that's how hard it could be to properly build 2-factor. Don't try it yourself, use us.
- macspoofing 12y ago> Don't try it yourself, use us. I get it, what I'm saying is, if you're a multi-billion dollar internet company whose business it is to manage hundred of millions of users, you should keep security in-house, and get it right instead of outsourcing it to a start-up.
- danudey 12y agoI think specifically what they're saying is 'If even Google can get it wrong, then you should seriously reconsider implementing it yourself if you need it. That said, we know a lot more about it than most people and you can trust us more than you can trust something you build yourself.'
