It's soon the year 2020 and we still rely on usernames and passwords to login in to websites and our gaming accounts. We withdraw money and shop with bank cards with only a PIN-code as our security and sometimes we gain physical access to areas with codes.
We also use two-factor authentication (2FA) to add another level of security. Mostly it makes the process take longer and the sad truth is that even this doesn't make these really that secure. This can all be compromised whether you use 2FA with SMS authentication, email or some authenticator app for verification.
When we gain access with usernames and passwords even with 2FA we all must in total honesty admit that we live in a false sense of security. Deep down we all dread the day we might get compromised and we try our best to be as elaborate with our login details as possible.
We make our passwords long and complex but at the same time we make it harder and harder for ourselves to use them. It becomes a chore to login. We use a different password for every website and maybe use a password manager that promises to make it easier for us but this way we compromise security ourselves. There is no getting around it. It is only a matter of time for some of us.
Username and password with a 2FA is insecure. A credit card is insecure as the PIN-code is the only 2FA. Gates and doors that use a key or a code are insecure. There is really no need for these measures of security as they are now obsolete.
Let me introduce to you, the one and only Digi-ID:
