    How the hell are companies like Okta and Twilio getting hacked? Need I remind you that they are in the business of MFA? So how are they supposed to keep other companies safe? Perhaps it's indeed time for ALL companies to switch to hardware security keys like from Yubico.

    It’s important to clarify that

    The breached was for a service that 5000 Okta employee used. Not for Okta’s own services.
