One of our customers, Online Banking Solutions offers banks and financial institution software for commercial account management. They have embedded WiKID for two-factor session authentication and mutual https authentication in both the server side and on their optional client. The combined client facilitates the initial validation process, performs session authentication using the one-time passcode and performs mutual https authentication to prevent MITM attacks.

Anton Chuvakin posts a response to this post about the PayPal tokens. These posts point out a number of desired features for broad-based consumer roll-out of two-factor authentication, such as the hope for a single token to work everywhere. but fail to mention that token won't stop phishing (one of the commenters does point that out).

Gotta love open source. To paraphrase, if the project you are looking for doesn't exist, just wait (or start it yourself). I've been wanting to do a proof-of-concept on adding two-factor authentication to Google Apps for you Domain for a long time. And while we will probably put this functionality into the WiKID server down the road, I wanted something right now :).
