A new version of the "Cerberus" Android banking trojan will be able to steal one-time codes generated by the Google Authenticator app and bypass 2FA-protected accounts.

If any Android users looking for a good alternative, I like Authy.
@voltronic @nova i agree Authy is the better one for 2FA
@voltronic @nova multi device and platform is why i stuck with it
and the pin/pw lock on the app which google's didn't have
@voltronic unless they have added one since i last used it which was years ago now
but i'm sure they haven't i read an article on why people should switch to authy not long ago and it said no pin was a major downside with google's app
@ecksmc
No pin on the Google Auth? That's lousy.
