In an effort to enhance security and streamline administration, Microsoft introduced the Authentication methods policy for Azure AD. This policy allows administrators to manage the MFA and SSPR settings from a single location, simplifying the overall user experience. However, it's important to note that the migration process has a limitation when it comes to hardware OATH tokens.

At our company, we believe in delivering safe and secure products to our customers. That's why we engaged SySS GmbH, an independent third-party security company, to conduct a thorough security assessment of our product, Molto2. We are proud to announce that Molto2 has passed this assessment with flying colors and has received a "Certified Product" badge from SySS GmbH.

We are excited to announce the upcoming launch of our latest product variation, the Token2 FIDO2 PIN+. The PIN+ series is a new variation of our existing security keys that deviates from the FIDO2 standards to provide stronger PIN complexity enforcement.

The Token2 Molto-2 is a popular multiprofile hardware token used for two-factor authentication, providing an additional layer of security for various online services and systems. With the latest version of the device, a new feature has been added that allows users to lock the device screen for added security.

As more and more organizations adopt a passwordless method of authentication, users are faced with the challenge of configuring their email accounts on their mobile devices.

We understand that some of our customers have questions and concerns about migrating to Azure Passwordless with FIDO2 keys. With this blog post, we aim to address and clarify some of the common queries that may arise regarding the technology.

We have been getting quite a lot of questions about the security level of FIDO keys, in the light of some recent news and research papers covering potential vulnerabilities of both the protocol stack itself and the hardware of certain implementations.

molto2.py is a solution developed by Token2 to program and configure the Molto2v2 TOTP hardware tokens using pyscard python library. It is fully cross-platform and works under Linux, macOS and Windows operating systems.

At Token2, we are always looking for ways to improve the user experience and make it as convenient and secure as possible. That's why we are excited to announce the addition of a passwordless login option for our website.

We have a lot of integration guides describing the process of enrolling our programmable tokens with different systems, such as Google, Microsoft, Facebook and many others.

On August 16th, 2022, Microsoft announced TOTP-based MFA for Azure AD B2C as generally available. The name used for this authentication method is "OATH software tokens", which is another name for TOTP authentication apps like Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator.

We have been getting many requests from the customers asking to make the NFC Burner tools available under macOS and Linux.

A memory corruption vulnerability (CVE-2021-4034) in PolKit, a component used in major Linux distributions and some Unix-like operating systems, can be easily exploited by local unprivileged users to gain full root privileges.

Citrix ADC(NetScaler) supports one-time passwords (OTPs) without having to use a third-party server. One-time password is a highly secure option for authenticating to secure servers, as the number or passcode generated is random.

Token2 is aware of the RCE vulnerability in the Apache Log4j , classified by the Apache security team as a critical severity issue (CVE-2021-44228).

Azure administrators need to have Global Administrator role to work with MFA, particularly to import and activate OATH tokens. Sometimes they want to delegate this task to service desk team, but to achieve this they need to delegate GA rights too. In this article, we would like to talk about a couple of solutions that would be usefull for administrators in managing MFA.

The LDAP proxy mode of TOTPRadius was introduced as a workaround for implementing 2FA access for systems without native support for multiple authentication sources. This works perfectly fine for organizations with full on-premises or hybrid Active Directory implementations where domain controllers can be accessed over the local network directly using LDAP protocol. But we are discovering more and more organizations moving to full cloud Azure AD implementation while keeping some services, such as VPN, on-premises. As the LDAP interface of Azure AD is not accessible directly, it was not possible to configure TOTPRadius to use Azure AD as its authentication source.

The Network Policy Server (NPS) extension for Azure Multi-Factor-Authentication (Azure MFA) provides a simple way to add cloud-based MFA capabilities to your authentication infrastructure using your existing NPS servers.

To protect your Salesforce account and data from unauthorized access, your org can require an extra layer of security when you log in.

Authy remains one of the most popular TOTP application used for 2FA due to its user-friendly features, such as centralized backup. As this feature is based on phone numbers (Authy uses your mobile phone number to identify or reset your account), which may be vulnerable to sim-swap attacks, some users may want to migrate from Authy to hardware tokens. Or, alternatively, users may need to clone/backup their existing TOTP profiles to hardware tokens.
