SQRL password alternative

30th October 2019

Steve Gibson founder of GRC talks about SQRL his password alternative. Free. Requires users to be responsible for their own security and backup their own keys. I trust this because Steve is a smart guy. BTW listen to Steve’s podcast called SecurityNow on Google Podcasts. This seems like a natural fit for 2 factor authentication.
