That is the laziest auth method I've seen. At least it's encrypted in transit though. I'll take that over the SMS, not-really-2fa crap that US banks refuse to give up though.

    Those "authenticator" apps work great, as long as you always have your phone on you. Proton Authenticator, Google Authenticator (don't use that), Microsoft whatever, etc.

    The banks have to offer it as an option though. A lot don't and opt instead for the least secure way to do it.
