I'm curious how OTP tokens work.
They only emit a few digits, and they can be resynced with the server by entering two values, so if I'm thinking correctly, two values must capture the entire state of the device (the seed for a PRNG or whatever they use). I assume that there's something in place to prevent an adversary from deriving the seed from two consecutive output values, so I'm curious how that works. -- It asked me for my race, so I wrote in "human". -- The Beastie Boys My emails do not have attachments; it's a digital signature that your mail program doesn't understand. | http://www.subspacefield.org/~travis/ If you are a spammer, please email j...@subspacefield.org to get blacklisted.
