accessibile electronic banking authentication

The Australian Bankers Association have just released draft Guiding
Principles for Accessible Authentication [1] around "two factor
authentication". This is summarised in the Media Release [2] which
states that "The aim is to provide a framework to banks and other
financial institutions to reach a workable balance between security
requirements, commercial strategies and equitable access to banking
products and services."

 

They have also released a progress report on the Accessibility of
Electronic Banking [3].
