Hackers have developed a phishing kit capable of bypassing two-factor authentication systems, previously considered to be one of the most secure ways of protecting access to online accounts.
Two-factor authentication, which involves providing additional information (usually a code sent by email or SMS) in addition to a traditional password to log into an online service, is a recommended security measure to protect access to your most sensitive accounts. Unfortunately, this solution, which seemed to be an invincible barrier against hackers, is now being undermined by a phishing tool called Astaroth, named after the Great Duke of Hell.
