RE: IS THE SMARTPHONE THE BIGGEST CYBERSECURITY RISK IN 2021?

in STEMGeeks • 2 years ago

This got me thinking how secure is 2 Factor authentication really? when I want to pay someone by bank transfer, the bank makes me verify any new accounts through an SMS to my mobile phone. If phones are compromised, then this means this whole system could be compromised as well?

I guess its better than nothing though.

        You make a really good point, which is why it is very important to pay close attention to what apps you allow on your phones. We always have to remain diligent with tech.
