The first initiatives will centre on Microsoft's licensing of RSA SecurID
two
, and the door may open
for a standards-based two-channel authentication method.

And here, I thought that a portion of the security embodied in a SecurID
token was the fact that it was a tamper-resistant, independent piece of
hardware. Now M$ wants to put the PRNG out in plain view, along with its
seed
Tamper-resistant hardware is out, second channel with remote source is in.
Trust can be induced this way too, and better. There is no need for
PRNG in plain
view, no seed value known. Delay time of 60 seconds (or more) is fine
because
each one-time code applies only to one page served.
