This is Authy's second breach in two years

Summary

  • Authy is a 2FA app that recently suffered a data breach that exposed more than 33 million phone numbers.
  • An unsecured API endpoint allowed threat actors to collect linked numbers.
  • If you think your personal information might be among the 33 million leaked numbers, consider securing your accounts with 2FA and be wary of SMS phishing attacks.

    That line makes me think AI text generation was involved (or the author didn’t understand what Authy does).

    It’s still a good idea to switch on 2FA and switch to TOTP for services that still use SMS.
