Summary

  • Authy is a 2FA app that recently suffered a data breach that exposed more than 33 million phone numbers.
  • An unsecured API endpoint allowed threat actors to collect linked numbers.
  • If you think your personal information might be among the 33 million leaked numbers, consider securing your accounts with 2FA and be wary of SMS phishing attacks.

    Good question. You would need to start by changing all your account passwords. Next export your 2 factor auth codes. Import your auth codes in a good open source auth app. Then, one by one set new auth codes for your accounts.

    This should be sufficient to protect your online accounts.
