    I'm a big fan of using more secure two-factor authentication methods like a security key or TouchID, but I will admit I never expected charging people to use SMS would be a viable strategy to get them off it šŸ˜… https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/product/2023/an-update-on-two-factor-authentication-using-sms-on-twitter

    I've given many talks about how mobile apps can't be deployed with a secret, and using Twitter's 2013 "hacks" as an example. I'm just going to leave this completely unrelated string of random characters here for no particular reason

    With all the hubbub around password managers today I’m so grateful for the foresight my mother had when she was younger changing her maiden name to a randomly generated 18 character word that resets itself every 30 days. #InfoSec #Security #LastPass

    Remember folks, "token exchange" does *not* mean "let me exchange a customer ID for a token"!

    Good thread on how remotely connected Honda, Nissan, Infiniti, and Acura cars were all able to be remotely controlled knowing only the VIN.

    This is your scheduled periodic reminder, for no particular reason, that now is a good time to review the third party OAuth apps that have access to your Twitter account, and remove any that you don't recognize or haven't used in a while.

    Made a new illustration to use in my slide decks.

    I often talk about choosing where on the security vs usability dial you want your systems to be, so I figured it was time to have a visual for that.

    Do I know anyone who knows the right malware analysis tools to determine whether an app accesses any files on the computer or what remote servers it connects to? I want to know more about what this particularly well targeted malware is trying to do.

    There's nothing like being at #EIC2022, a conference all about identity and security, where phishing and hacking have been a major theme across all the talks, and then getting a "is this you?" push on my phone from an IP on a sketchy VPN followed by a password reset email

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
