Comment on Ask HN: (Cheap) U2F Tokens?parent

Comments

But are cryptographic chips actually needed for 2fa tokens to be useful. A lot of security risks are already covered by having a physical second factor, no?

I think it's mainly for secure storage and secure RNG people use them.

You can of course claim you need neither.
