We all know this is exactly what happens when Dan sees Phil. Don’t bullshit us Dan.
Dan was on my kitchen floor covered in milk, a TV somehow bounced off the wall and killed me by hitting me in the ass, and apparently when I die I will possess an LG G2 and haunt Niall Horan.
Thanks Phil.
A one-time password (OTP) is a password that is valid for only one login session or transaction. OTPs avoid a number of shortcomings that are associated with traditional (static) passwords. The most important shortcoming that is addressed by OTPs is that, in contrast to static passwords, they are not vulnerable to replay attacks. This means that a potential intruder who manages to record an OTP that was already used to log into a service or to conduct a transaction will not be able to abuse it, since it will be no longer valid. On the downside, OTPs are difficult for human beings to memorize. Therefore they require additional technology to work.
