Also, introduce randomness into the generated password from your password manager as they don't always use true randomness to generate the passwords.
The threat actor achieved this by "inputting a massive list of phone numbers into Authy’s unsecured API endpoint, which would then verify whether they’re associated with the app".
Doesn't quite match your title of "Authy, the 2FA app has been hacked and over 30M accounts were compromised."
Why change Authy? they just got your phone number, so can use it for sms attacks have authy or not
I hate this app, can’t recover my account because I forgot my password and they can’t even reset it
And how this??
