Guests Elie Bursztein, security, anti-abuse and privacy researcher @ Google Kurt Thomas, security, anti-abuse and privacy researcher @ Google Topics: Can we say that "Multi-Factor Authentication - if done well - fixes phishing for good" or is this too much to say? What are the realistic and seen-in-the-wild bypasses for MFA as a protection? How do you think these controls fare vs top tier attackers (clearly, they work vs commodity threats)? What do we know about burden vs value of MFA today? What can we realistically do to increase MFA/2FA adoption to the 90%s? Can we share anything about what we're seeing as industry benchmarks on MFA adoption so far?  We've seen a lot of ugly debates over the value of SMS as MFA, what is your research-based take on this?
