US researchers find flaws in single sign-on - UK experts says this highlights the need for 2FA

(PresseBox) (Berkshire (UK), )
Commenting on weekend reports that US security researchers have discovered a number of flaws in single sign-on (SSO) services operated by a number of portals - including Google and PayPal - SecurEnvoy says this highlights the clear need for two-factor authentication (2FA) where financial/personal logins are concerned.

According to Steve Watts, co-founder of SecurEnvoy - the tokenless two-factor authentication specialist(TM) , the fact that the security flaws also include social networking sites/services such as Facebook and Twitter - both of which have been repeatedly shown to have their security shortcomings - is enough to set the alarm bells ringing.
