Thanks, Dr. T for excellent delivery. Most of my passwords are phrases, including a cap letter, an asterisk, and numbers. Adding extra steps sometimes feels boring because we want easy passwords. However, this isn't safe, and in times like this(AL world), one needs all the possible extra steps to secure their online presence. Good job, Doc!
Nice, and thanks for sharing, Dr. T. Great tips on protecting one's digital identity or profile! As hackers are fast using AI to launch sophisticated cyber attacks. I particularly like the ideal of using passphrases. If you don't mind, please, share the "use a passphrase" link. Can't be hard to remember a passphrase, right? Emh...such as, what do you make of STEM? By way, what if secure USB key hardware MFA gets missing? Don't you think it will be better off with more apps providing a 2FA or MFA using what you are, such as biometrics? Besides, what you know, such as a passphrase.

MFA Apps are an option that's more flexible and provides convenience but hardware MFA keys have been shown to provide better security. Both hardware MFA and biometric authentication offer robust security features, but they cater to different needs and environments. Hardware MFA is highly secure and less intrusive but may be less convenient for everyday use. Biometric authentication offers convenience and ease of use but comes with higher privacy risks and potential reliability issues. The choice between them depends on the specific security requirements, user convenience, and use case.
