Then the bank sends a text message to my phone with a unique code, and I enter that code into my computer to finish the login. This login process is two-factor authentication. I am proving my identity by entering my banking password (the first factor) and validating that I am in control of my phone (the second factor) by receiving that text message.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But in order to log in from my laptop, I need to be in control of my laptop. The laptop itself is a factor. With the laptop and my password, I have two factors. I might not actually need the phone as a factor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Praneet Sharma is the CEO of <a href=\"http:\/\/keyless-tech.com\/\">Keyless<\/a>, a product that moves 2-factor authentication into the browser. Praneet joins the show to discuss how all kinds of authentication work: multi-factor authentication, single sign on, and Yubikey. We use this discussion of authentication methods to help explain why it actually could make sense for some people to be doing 2-factor authentication without requiring people to take out their phone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We also explore recent security breaches like Target, Equifax and Yahoo&#8211;and the industry of security software sold to developers. I see giant banners for security software companies every time I go into the San Francisco airport, and Praneet explained to me some of the products that these kinds of companies are selling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Praneet has joined the show in a previous episode to talk about advertising fraud.
