wdym? What's a dynamic password?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

A rotating code key - a lot of banks these days will give you a fob to enter a rotating proof of ownership off of along with your password.

Time-based one-time passwords. It's been used for years for multi-factor authentication.
