    Mobile phone authenticators are very secure and are currently used across the business world as a way to lock down sensitive networks, etc.

    The RSA SecurID has an industry standard authentication app. In fact, the iphone version of the app requires it's own 5 digit code to even access, so if anyone wants to hack your SE acct, they would need the following:
    1. Your SE Acct User Name
    2. Your SE Acct Password
    3. Knowledge that you are using your iPhone Authenticator and not a Security Token
    4. Your iPhone
    5. Your Phone's password
    6. Your Security Authenticator Password.

    If anything, an iPhone Authenticator is even less likely to be compromised than a security token (which has a FF logo on it btw).

    Impossible? No, nothing is impossible in the world of hacking, but if anyone goes through all that to steal my acct -- until I call SE to get it restored -- then more power to them.
