Authentication (2FA) for ARIN Online Accounts

Hello,
Verisign fully supports and encourages making 2FA a hard requirement for ARIN
Online account access. As such, Verisign?s preference is to require 2FA using
ARIN Online?s existing options which includes support for compatible
third-party mobile authenticators. Due to the inherent weaknesses of SMS 2FA,
this should only be used in the event all other third-party mobile
authenticators are deemed unacceptable or not permitted for use due to country
specific restrictions or the like. As ARIN is such a critical component of
internet infrastructure, Verisign would recommend prioritizing the plans to
support FIDO2 and would also recommend developing a cohesive plan to encourage
and/or force users that do utilize SMS to migrate to the other two
authentication methods.
