I'm lucky my banking app works (GrapheneOS), as it's now requiring 2FA with the app anytime I login on the browser. Can't use an actually secure form like TOTP. At least they now allow passwords over 8 characters (yes, serious).

Are you 100% certain they don't just truncate your password to 8 characters?

[–] RebootRebootReboot@programming.dev 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I've seen a website that silently truncated my password during a password reset, but then wouldn't truncate it during login. It took me a while to figure out why my password never worked.

Name & shame please

[–] MTK@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I hate this so much!

My bank is like that and another horrible thing is that after you choose your password (which can be long and complex) you need to choose a 6 DIGIT restore code incase you forgot your password...

Why is is my BANK so bad at security??

[–] Dnn@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

And they all develop their own shitty app for 2FA (the lazy ones just rebrand SecureGo as their own - you still have to install all of them separately) instead of using the 15 year old TOTP standard. The latter is good enough for tiny companies like Google and Amazon but what do they know about itsec, right?

Heath Ledger started banking here in the year 2000. Only movie producers have debit cards right and all actors are on a cash only basis and actors are cannibals that rob and eat their prey.

I mean you all weren’t ripping or watching Hollywood movies on the internet right? Because that’s just a cheap way for producers to store things so there isn’t giant dvd and vhs recording machines. Taking up space in print shops. Printing t shirts just went on because that blonde chick in ten things I hate about you did acting as a source of income and because it was an art but she preferred real art but didn’t see selling statues as a source of income or steady income. Sometimes large durable good purchases weren’t supported in capitalism. So it was T shirt printing and that genre of music that took place during those years. They’d all run around stabbing and killing all these other people as like a cult. The world was somewhat French back then.

And simulations are just used for movie production so that actors don’t miss their cues or start eating things and robbing and killing each other on the set.

Heath Ledger is kidnapped not dead, if he didn’t die as his stage name or other self then hepatitis b does this to him, and that’s why there was glucose in Mountain Dew and potassium in everything else as a preservative and no one could really eat natural foods or supposedly natural cheeses and butter. And that’s one thing I hate about you.

sorry, what ?

I moved to a bank that allows non google phones and let my previous bank know why I left.

Why are you licensing your comments

[–] fishos@lemmy.world -1 points 11 months ago

Because they think it matters. Same as people posting on Facebook some legalese saying "Facebook doesn't have the rights to my stuff.". They think that by slapping a copyright "claim" on their stuff that they supercede the agreements of the platform and somehow protect their comments from being scrapped by bots/advertisers, etc. All it really does is add a little "this guy is probably a sovereign citizen type" sign to every post they make.

Magisk plus DenyList luckily works for my banks. Couldn't imagine not having a rooted phone.

[–] Engywuck@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

Non-rooted phones are just like iPhones. Ewww...

[–] PoorPocketsMcNewHold@lemmy.ml 0 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Beat the main purpose of GrapheneOS. Open the phone to a broad lot of security issues.

[–] viking@infosec.pub 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Graphene only works for Pixel phones, and I don't want a Google device.

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

thats fair. device support is a major downside of GOS. but, remember: its not really the fault of the OS, as it requires a lockable/unlockable bootloader, which only pixel phones provide (at least in terms of mainstream phones). blame the OEMs like samsung

[–] deweydecibel@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Mainstream phones? Pixel is a smaller market share than Motorola, and Motorola has unlockable bootloaders, and lineage supports a fair number of them.

I thought Google owned Motorola, but I missed the sale to Lenovo ten years ago.

[–] BaardFigur@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Lenovo owns Motorola. Lenovo being chinese is somewhat a security risk.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

GrapheneOS is made by diva developers who frankly should not be trusted. "We only allow Google phones to run our OS!" as if they don't have a backroom deal with Google.

[–] PoorPocketsMcNewHold@lemmy.ml 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Proove us that you can get better security while remaining able to be fully modified with other phones and brands. https://www.privacyguides.org/en/android/#divestos

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Privacy Guides has a bit of a sordid history of their own diva behaviour.

Nah they've been accused of biases.
