The microblogging site Twitter on Wednesday announced its new feature, which uses a security key as the only two-factor authentication method on both mobile and web.
This new feature comes after Twitter announced the same in March.
According to ANI, the physical security keys have advantages over two-factor methods like an authenticator app or SMS because they do not rely on code that a bad server could intercept.
On a related note, this is not the first time that Twitter has announced a new feature related to improvising the security on its platform.
In recent years, Twitter has added several features to beef up login security. The company also expanded beyond SMS in 2017 by adding support for the authentication apps like Google Authenticator and Authy.

In 2019, the microblogging site has enabled two-factor authentication without giving the phone number, which comes with a positive change given to the SMS that can be vulnerable to the SIM-swapping attacks.
