As far as I know we don't have 2FA, as in a second factor added to the password. We got passkeys, though. It's in one of the tabs of the settings: https://nord.pub/user/passkeys and there is oauth as well.

Passkey is a 2FA

hendrik@palaver.p3x.de · 3 pts · 3d (3 replies)

Not really. Passkey is an authentication technology. If you use it in addition to some other authentication, you get it as a second factor. If you use it instead of the other mechanism (i.e. replace the password login with the passkey) you got one factor, the passkey. PieFed does the latter. So it's not 2FA.

Edit: Why the downvotes here? I'm pretty sure this is factual information.

i confirm it is factual information.

Passkey are 2FA if it requires : password + keys. So the way piefed handles is not really 2FA...yet

I mean, as I use keepass as my passkey manager, and my db has a password on it, there are 2 factors of authentication when i use a passkey.

Does your PC have a password? If so I would think that would be 3 factors.

I meant TOTP 2FA, forgot to specify
