PayPal is notifying 34,942 Americans that a hacker accessed their personal information during a two-day credential stuffing attack in early December. The San Jose, California-based company says it has not detected unauthorized transactions emanating from affected accounts.
Attackers have caught up with legacy multifactor authentication tools that use push technology or one-time passcodes, boosting the need for phishing-resistant MFA, says Jeremy Grant. In response, government officials such as CISA Director Jen Easterly have championed FIDO since it's mature and open.
Moving from certificate-based to FIDO authentication reduces overhead and complications for enterprises looking to move away from passwords, says Microsoft's Libby Brown. FIDO allows organizations to go passwordless by simply buying a FIDO key and turning it on in their Azure Active Directory.
