To increase security, many organizations have begun to use an additional security layer, 2FA, to manage access points. The downside is that if a device is lost, stolen, or hacked (for example, by malware), most 2FA systems are compromised. “2FA does not identify an individual. It identifies a device. In the security industry, ‘identity approximation.’ It is not identity verification,” says David Harding, senior vice president and CTO of ImageWare Systems. “Identification or authentication assumes france whatsapp data belongs to or is in the possession of a specific individual, but in reality, there is no evidence to support that assumption. All we know about a device is that it is there.”
There are several recent examples of 2FA being compromised. In August 2019, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey’s account was hacked. 2FA protection did not prevent the attackers from posting a number of offensive messages on his account. A similar fate befell the cryptocurrency exchange Binance. As a result of the hack, it lost 7 thousand.

Many people think that compromising the 2FA system is a very difficult task. In fact, it is not. One of the easiest methods to hack authentication, especially in the US, is SIM swapping, where the attacker switches the target mobile phone number to a new number. This then receives all text messages, including SMS with 2FA verification codes, which gives the criminal access to the victim's payment and other systems.

Experts have also found that 2FA systems have been compromised by a number of malware programs. One of these is Cerberus, a type of Android-based malware. In February 2020, Cerberus was found to have managed to steal codes from Google Authenticator’s 2FA service. There is also TrickBot malware, which bypasses 2FA solutions by intercepting one-time codes sent by banking apps via SMS and push notifications.
