Paypal to Issue Security Key

Gizmodo reported yesterday on Paypal’s new security measure. Paypal will be offering a hardware-based solution which will display a one-time use passnumber every thirty seconds, to be added to your password and username. These keychain sized devices, common for business based security protocols, are an easy and inexpensive way of ensuring security…assuming you don’t lose the device.

We wish we could get one to review. We tried to log in…and it said it was currently unavailable.
