Anyone started playing with the virtual smart cards in windows 8? Very cool as it stores the cert on the TPM chip and you can integrate it into FIM CM for easy maintenance and deployment. Ian Sent from my iPhone On 10 Nov 2012, at 15:35, Robin Wood <robin () digininja org> wrote:

Would like to hear both sides. And if your 'for' then which solutions/products have you used. And by all means if you have pwn'd a two factor soft token login, please share (if you can).Isnt "two factor" and "software token" mutually exclusive? While a software implementation of two factor may emulate the actual hardware (the second factor), isnt it actually, really not two factor? Its one factor, something you know. The something you have is now just another app that the user doesnt really provide?I'd disagree with that, an RSA token is just software running on a custom piece of hardware. What is the difference between the RSA token and an app running on my Android phone when both are generating authentication codes. Not saying the app is as secure as the hardware token just a different way to implement it.
