I like multiple factors. I played with a bunch of different hardware security tokens over time. Fingerprint reading on the token is pretty good, I don't like the idea of typing in a PIN to an untrusted computer to talk to the token. I played with the only key, and it's interesting, but it's been pretty much abandoned by its original developers. So I think it's in dead end. But it did have a physical input keypad on the key. So the PIN didn't have to trust the computer that's nice What do you use? What is your strategy? Any fun anecdotes? |

If I don’t trust the computer with my PIN, I don’t trust it to handle an access token. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |

the trouble is many tokens the PIN overrides the fingerprint, so giving the pin to a host reduces it from something you have/something you are to just something you have, something you know. And computers are good at knowing things. |
