Comment on Verified by Visa and Mastercard SecureCode are broken and need to be fixed

Comments

3DS being broken was known long before 3DS was finalized. It's not new. However, it's successful because of the security it brings to merchants. Merchants implement it because they get covered. It's the perception of security that works.

Until 3DS implements some out-of-band authentication, you won't have something secure. Implementing OoB auth isn't difficult, either. The technology has been around for a LONG time, with proven results.
