Explore a groundbreaking system for second-factor authentication presented at the 2019 IEEE Symposium on Security & Privacy. Delve into True2F, which offers robust protection against phishing, software compromise, token faults, and backdoors while maintaining compatibility with existing U2F-enabled web services. Discover the innovative lightweight two-party protocols for cryptographic key generation and ECDSA signatures, as well as new privacy defenses to prevent cross-origin token-fingerprinting attacks. Learn how True2F operates on commodity hardware tokens with a simple firmware modification, completing authentication in just 57ms compared to 23ms for unprotected U2F. Gain valuable insights into the future of secure authentication from Emma Dauterman's 19-minute presentation on this cutting-edge technology.
