Interesting !
A few questions (and sorry for maybe the silly questions) :
* In the gist, it's mentioned that the secret is stored in the Session Local, a
secret is supposed to be reused, right ? But with session Local, the secret will be
deleted after each session, did you maybe mean Local Storage ? Or does the secret is
passed at each new session (which feels strange...) ?
I assume he meant the SessionLocal adapter for DataManager, using the localStorage side of
it.
* If the secret is stored on the browser and can an user login on this webapp when using
another device (has to register again) ?
Yes, I believe another registration would have to happen but is that any different then if
I had 2 soft tokens for the VPN? The would both have to be registered, right?
* The secret is passed over the network the first time, isn't that dangerous ;) ?
Yes, just like storing the secret in localStorage isn't exactly safe either. We're
still exploring right now. I think Bruno plans to start putting some code together and
then we'll review and see if we can find ways to make it more secure. JS is hard! ;)
* Option 4, with behind the scene flow, avoid the users to switch between an OTP and a
login screen, right ? That seems a nice option
Agree
* Is something like image based authentication maybe an option to investigate (identify
the cat, the boat etc ...)

Hmmm, I didn't think about that. I like that much more than captcha. We would have to
think about if we supply images, the app dev supplies them, both? I would be interested in
exploring that … one issue though is that would not be friendly to the visually impaired
so probably not the best option now that I think more about it. Maybe pairing with audio
could be an option?

Morning slackers, I had a meeting with Kris, Luke and Passos about the painless way to
provide an OTP implementation for JavaScript.

Basically the scenarios 1 and 4 were chosen to be implemented. Scenarios 2 & 3 would
provide bad user experience.
I'll start to file some Jiras to myself, if you have any addition, let me know.
