Anyone know anything about a company called 2factor (2factor.com)?
They're pushing a system based on symmetric cryptography with, it
appears, some kind of trusted authority. "Factor of 100 faster
than SSL". "More secure, because it authenticates every message."
No real technical data I can find on the site, and I've never seen
a site with so little information about who's involved. (Typically,
you at least get a list of the top execs.) Some ex-spooks? Pure
snake oil? Somewhere in between?
