Two-factor for the cloud

I'm back from my many summer travels and hope to have some time to do some posting. However, some new customers are keeping us a bit busy, so don't get your hopes up. Not that you would.

Dave Jevans, CEO of IronKey, (disclosure: IronKey is a WiKID customer) has a post on the Wells Fargo - Microbilt consumer credit bureau breach(which he also references in Cloud Security: The Need for Two-Factor Authentication in Cloud Computing.

What's interesting to me is how similar this is to the Ford Credit/Experian breach 5 years ago. Well, perhaps it's good that it took five years for this to happen again?
