The banking situation
-
@fla said in The banking situation:
a lot (probably around 500) of providers
Can you put the link of supported providers ? I can't find it. Thank you
-
Bank apps probably use TOTP or HOTP that should be no secret to give us (customers) an alternative way to generate this one-time-password so we can configure Authenticator-NG accordingly.
If I'm correct HOTP uses Android secure environment so this might be an issue for us.
But compliant solutions exist that we can use on UT, banks just don't like to be transparent about the technical solution they use.
-
@applee But the thing is they don't have to release any code at all ! I guess you can publish proprietary software on the openstore, can't you ?
-
@emphrath You could, yes. At least we would find a way, there is no technical limitation.

@cliffcoggin EU made it so that banks can choose which 2FA they offer. Some German banks still deliver physical devices as an alternative (which you have to pay), then my house bank still uses SMS.
But 95% of all banks in Austria moved to Android/iOS Apps, they are the cheapest form for them, no device, no SMS to pay for. The user pays for himself basically
So I must say, I cannot really change to another bank, and hope that mine will not stop SMS codes soon...
-
Is it possible that Morph can connect to a 2FA authentication key to validate with the bank?
Or would the banks not accept it?
Regards...
-
Wouldn't it be possible for banks to do this the same way so many sites do? We have two authenticator apps on the store for UT, they work fine for Mozilla, Google, and other sites that do 2FA.
I'm able to use my bank's website through Morph to do my banking without issue.

@giiba Somebody told the banks that if its not executed in a trusted, secured environment its not safe. So, a web TOTP or whatever will not be accepted. And they have a point with that. The Secure Execution Environment in Qualcomm SoCs is much better than doing nothing. Also signed app, signed OS, signed everything xD
-
@flohack well, after some calls with my bank it seems i'm going with one of these physical gadgets ^^
-
@domubpkm I didn't find the list either, but I still have the app installed, tell me the one you are looking for and I'll confirm to you if it's there.

@domubpkm
Sorry for such late answer...
Disabling uAdblock worked for website, however, soon they'll force customers to use their banking app to pay online so, i'll be in this "banking situatiin" the OT thread describes. -
@bodqhrohro Hello and welcome to UBports. Just a quick point, posting a link without any explanation looks a bit like spam. You might also find this link useful https://ubports.com/meet-the-community

@keneda Multiple responses (in no particular order):
- Change bank;
- Change phone;
- Hope the new anbox (will be useful for the COVID app in France...) will work on one of your current phones.
- maybe another answer to your problem..
This reflects the current climate for french where we are/will be ..... everywhere (replace the dots with your favorite word), if you guess (a clue, I DON'T SPEAK of UT..)
