Chris ShermanGUEST
We're in the big city, and we need to be very mindful of that.
Chris ShermanGUEST
And so using those extra security protocols, MFA and 2FA, making sure your passwords are, are meeting standards, 12 characters of upper, lowercase numbers and special characters, all of those things are really, really critical to locking up your, your digital profile and improving your security posture.
Chris ShermanGUEST
And I think whether you're in an agribusiness, whether you're a farmer, whether you're a rancher, it doesn't really matter.
Chris ShermanGUEST
The fact of the, is, is that as a, as an industry, we need to be more mindful of our security and making sure that, you know, we remember to do that and lock things up, so to speak, on the digital front.
Bart BusschotsPANELIST
All right, cool.
Bart BusschotsPANELIST
So what Alistair posted was, a service I use has just introduced two-factor authentication via SMS, while another I use has just removed this option, citing its insecure nature.
Bart BusschotsPANELIST
I know any 2FA is better than none, but in 2026, how insecure is SMS 2FA really? Did it
Allison SheridanHOST
get
Bart BusschotsPANELIST
more secure since I last researched this? No, definitely not.
Bart BusschotsPANELIST
Yeah.
Allison SheridanHOST
I mean, it's not long, but it's like, I'm right there.
Allison SheridanHOST
Sometimes I even have a 2FA code and it goes, yeah, but I'm going to send you an email.
speaker_1HOST
The logic flaw.
speaker_0HOST
Yeah, because the report specifically notes this was a two-factor authentication or 2FA bypass.
speaker_0HOST
And it wasn't a traditional bug.
speaker_0HOST
It was a semantic logic flaw.
speaker_1HOST
The code compiles perfectly, and a fuzzer will run against it for 100 years and never find a problem because the program never crashes.
speaker_2ADVERTISER
Wow.
speaker_1HOST
In the case of this 2FA bypass, the developer made a human logical error in how the authorization steps were sequenced.
speaker_1HOST
They hard-coded a trust assumption.
Kenny BHOST
got to have proper passwords.
Kenny BHOST
You've got to have 2FA on.
Kenny BHOST
You've got to have the verified thing.
Skid PigHOST
Yeah.
Boikokobetso MakhetloaneGUEST
If it's your, let's say, for example, your email address, change your password and then add email.
Boikokobetso MakhetloaneGUEST
the extra layer of security, which is a 2FA, right? Your authenticator, very, very important with that being said.
Boikokobetso MakhetloaneGUEST
And I want to emphasize to people that authenticators, you don't have to pay for the app.
Boikokobetso MakhetloaneGUEST
So there are free authentication that you can get from Google, from Microsoft.
Matt GrahamGUEST
Yeah, I mean, even within our organization, like we have super strict, every channel, every project's on lockdown.
Matt GrahamGUEST
You only get access to that project if you're in that project, right? Like there's 2FA everywhere and 2FA kind of breaks a lot of anything you try to do with these agentic tools, they get stuck on those.
Matt GrahamGUEST
So like in an organization that has, that is larger and has to protect its data, it's definitely tough to leverage these tools.
Matt GrahamGUEST
I think there's still like, you know, there's a lot of established companies should look too much into that.
Chris TarbellHOST
included usage, and in some cases, build credit.
Chris TarbellHOST
No password or 2FA prompt is required on the relay.
Chris TarbellHOST
The cookie is the login.
Chris TarbellHOST
And Anthropic says that the malware is not installed by Claude, not a Claude side breach, and not something that a user, quote unquote, did in Claude.
Michael BrownHOST
And if I refresh the page, it will log me out.
Michael BrownHOST
I have to go through the two-factor, the 2FA again to get back in.
Michael BrownHOST
It's just...
Michael BrownHOST
Driving me
Richard LiangGUEST
... uh, which is, hey, I, like, can see your, like, tr- you transfer, like, this guy 500 euros, for example, on Revolut.
Richard LiangGUEST
Typically, I guess, in these banking fintechs, like, the right endpoint is, like, secured by, like, a OTP or a 2FA.
Anna RoseHOST
Mm.
Richard LiangGUEST
So, like, even if they took the session material, they can't really, like, transfer funds out.
speaker_1HOST
Password manager, passwort manager.
speaker_1HOST
Two-factor authentication adds a second verification step, like a code sent to your phone for extra account security.
speaker_1HOST
Two-factor authentication, zwei-faktor authentifizierung.

VPN stands for virtual private network.
