2FA (2 Factor Authentication): Universal 2nd factor (U2f) hardware authentication

With the introduction of 2FA, I would have expected MYOB to include support for physical authentication. In view of increased security, will MYOB be including support for devices such as Yubikey?

    I agree with Barthos suggestion (+1).

     

    This is also in line with recommendations in the ACSC Australian Government Information Security Manual 2019 pages 84-85, specifically Security Control 1401 which states:

     

    Multi-factor authentication uses at least two of the following authentication factors: passwords with six or more characters, Universal 2nd Factor (U2F) security keys, physical one-time password(OTP) tokens, biometrics or smartcards.

     

    Yubico provides information on how developers can integrate with its products here.

     

    In addition to the Yubico Yubikey, Google also now sells its own U2F product known as the Google Titan Security Key.
