Radio AzureusThere are different articles floating on the internet of people who've experienced the same as I have. For no reason, without any warning, you cannot uninstall authy anymore on your device.If you do a few things will happen; one of them is that after installation it will not allow you to get an SMS from your mobile phone, or it will allow that, but you will not be able to add any new accounts.In either case the program has become worthless and you will get no warning ⚠️ <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Authy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authy</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/2FA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#2FA</a>

Radio AzureusHave you started migrating your authy MFA 2FA accounts to open source MFA clients?¡¿No?!Please start asap. The company has quietly been changing things with this important program and since they do not allow you to export your accounts easily, you will be in a situation where you have to systematically migrate the most important account you have to open source clientsAt a certain point authy will stop working even on your new Androids without explanation no **fucks given**<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Authy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authy</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/2FA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#2FA</a>

KettwachslerAls <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/authy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#authy</a> den Export nicht mehr unterstützte, war es natürlich mühsam, die Daten alle umzuziehen.Ich hatte mir eine Liste gemacht und dann nach und nach alle Dienste auf <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/enteAuth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#enteAuth</a> umgezogen (<a href="https://sueden.social/tags/2FAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#2FAS</a> wäre die zweite Option gewesen).Genau so werde ich das nun mit allen meinen benutzten US-Diensten machen: in einer Liste alle Abhängigkeiten sammeln und dann nach und nach umziehen.<a href="https://sueden.social/tags/esIstAnDerZeit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#esIstAnDerZeit</a> <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/unplugTrump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#unplugTrump</a>

Marcus "MajorLinux" SummersI can't remember if I had mentioned this before, but apparently <a href="https://toot.majorshouse.com/tags/Authy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authy</a> stopped enabling their iPad app from working on macOS.Now, the app is forcing an update and I can't update it through the App Store.What the fuck is actually going on?Why take this feature away?!

Quinn Comendant 🐧Ugh, Authy just bricked their Catalyst app on macOS. I should have migrated long ago, but having almost 100 TOTP keys, so there is serious lock-in. 🤦‍♂️<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Authy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authy</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#macOS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/facepalm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#facepalm</a>

RadgrydThanks everyone for all the recommendations! The reason I wanted to stop using Authy was because they were breached last year and they're also closed-source.If someone is thinking of moving away from Authy the following seem to be the most-liked on Fedi, going by the replies: Ente, Aegis, FreeOTP+ and 2FAS. All of them are free and open source.I chose Ente because it also works cross-platform. <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/Authy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authy</a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/AuthenticatorApp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AuthenticatorApp</a>

RadgrydI want to move away from Authy. Dear Fedi, safest authenticator app? Go. <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AskFedi</a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/Authy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authy</a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/AuthenticatorApp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AuthenticatorApp</a> Edit: I ended up going with Ente 🦆 <a href="https://ente.io/auth/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://ente.io/auth/</a>

Thomas Strömberg 🚲🌳🛵Moving all my <a href="https://triangletoot.party/tags/2FA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#2FA</a> keys away from <a href="https://triangletoot.party/tags/Authy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authy</a> was not the nightmare that I thought it would be: only about an hour of work.Not only did I miss having a desktop app, but I had forgotten my Authy password and was down to 1 logged in device.

Erik van Straten<a href="https://mastodon.nl/@jasper" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@jasper</a> : okay, ik heb geprofiteert van een "sponsored item" ;-)Maar met de stukjes die ik aanhaalde ben ik het volledig eens.Als ik dan zie dat de Radboud Universiteit nu MFA verplicht (voor eduVPN: <a href="https://www.ru.nl/over-ons/nieuws/veiliger-inloggen-bij-eduvpn" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.ru.nl/over-ons/nieuws/veiliger-inloggen-bij-eduvpn</a>) dan heb ik toch sterk mijn twijfels (SMS toestaan is helemaal opmerkelijk). Als ik het goed begrijp is eduVPN gebaseerd op OpenVPN, met als basis een sterke private key op jouw device. Als dat device gecompromitteerd is ben je meestal sowieso de Sjaak.MFA (of 2FA) is symptoombestrijding voor zwakke en/of hergebruikte wachtwoorden, en introduceert een berg nieuwe problemen (die de meeste voorstanders luidkeels verzwijgen).Mocht iemand toch een TOTP app willen gebruiken, blijf dan ver weg bij Authy (een privacy- en security-drama [1]). AEGIS is open source. Denk er wel om dat je zelf betrouwbare backups van de bijbehorende database (*) moet maken.(*) In die database zitten "shared secrets", per account een uniek soort "wachtwoord" dat zowel jouw app als de server met jouw account "kennen". De app "verhaspelt" dat geheim met de actuele datum en tijd, en kort het resultaat in tot een beperkt aantal cijfers; de server doet precies hetzelfde (de server doet dat meestal voor verschillende tijdstippen omtreeks het huidige, omdat klokken soms onvoldoende gelijk lopen).[1] <a href="https://security.nl/posting/796625" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://security.nl/posting/796625</a> en specifiek m.b.t.
