In part two with Online Safety Consultant Troy Hunt
(Have I Been Pwned), we
unpack the risks of online age verification in light of Australia’s
social media ban, including the personal data (often times photos
or government documents) sites may demand, and how these security
practices can be questionable.
Troy explains why we should be thinking more about data
minimisation and the dangers of unnecessary data retention. We go
through the safest multi-factor authentication methods, from SMS to
physical keys, and Troy shares a personal phishing story, reminding
us that no-one is immune to hacking thanks to increasingly
sophisticated phishing techniques.
