It drives me nuts that 2FA is being expected by companies, and yet they're not providing employees with a phone. If you do want me to use 2FA, provide me with a device I can do it from. I do not use my personal devices for work.


view as:

I have been holding the company ipad hostage since the day I joined. I need it for work and either you pay for the device or I keep this ipad till I leave.

They said that they will give me the ipad till I got a functioning Android/ios phone on my own cost. Why would I do that? Anything in company property needs to be signed off to them. There is only one app on there: Okta


I’m the only one at my company who uses a USB key for 2FA. Zero interest in an app on my personal device.

The exception I make is that I use Google Authenticator for my work 2FA (via Okta). I also have a yubikey set up but our VPN application doesn't work with it.

Yeah I have no problem using GA for work stuff, but I’d be interested in reasons against it.
