Opinion on using two-factor authentication

[bmckean]

What is your opinion on using two-factor authentication?

Is it more of a headache than it is secure?

just curious

In my opinion it's good, I prefer:-

1) Something you know

2) Something you have

rather than and or including

1) Something you are

The only setback with the something you have is normally this is a secure ID token.....and users have a tendancy to forget the PIN, and lose the token! So the amount of admin does tend to rise - and the costs of new tokens!!!
