The Microsoft Authenticator app is now issuing notifications warning that the password autofill feature is being deprecated in July, suggesting users move to Microsoft Edge instead.
Hey can anyone give any context!, authenticator, atleast I thought was a loved app, what are we to do without it, I mean microsoft was a trusted company to whom I could rely on for my security, and its also microsoft whose killing the software, not google!, why has this even happened in the first place
trusted company to whom I could rely on for my security
I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic…
Yeah, i get it, not a good company an evil empire but would you rather a company that you have never even heard of, who probably has a cybersec department that is funded the amount microsoft can afford for it’s cafeteria?!
Not speaking about the evil empire bit at all, actually (though they are). More so of the security aspect. They’re known for cutting corners on security to the point that their security neglect has created the situations needed to cause some of the greatest security vulnerabilities worldwide. Read up on EternalBlue as a good segue.
Yeah, I do know about that but there is also this phenomenon, I think its called observers bias, and I think it applies here, sure there have been great security breaches in microsoft but they are only known so well cuz u dont check chinese news!, or for that matter you may not even see small company’s security breaches on the general page of an english news site, microsoft is ubiquitous, no matter where you live or weather you follow the news or not, if there is a security breach at microsoft you will know it
I’m not talking about standard breaches. I’m talking about security laziness. If you want to trust them, go for it. As for me, I choose to distrust their security practices due to their long history of security laziness and neglect, that continues to this day.
Yeah I have heard of bitwarden, but whats this eu mess, and if I am not in eu how do i get it
there’s just 2 official servers. the default selection is the one in the USA. you can use any of them regardless of where you live.
there are other public servers too, and it can also be selfhosted.
