>>". Authy Bluetooth will only talk to pre-approved computers and all messages are encrypted."
Just wondering if you can speak to what sort of encryption and safeguards you've got going on here. The docs cover how the tokens are created, but not the communication between phone and mac.
Seems like an awesome thing but I wouldn't feel comfortable using it for work without knowing a bit more.
We use Elliptic Diffie Hellman when you are pairing your iPhone to your Mac. The key is stored on both iPhone and Mac KeyChains. Every message between them is encrypted/signed using that key.
I don't know about the internals of Authy, but Bluetooth encrypts by default and so far it has not been shown to be terrible (if you use a sufficiently random key while pairing).
So even if Authy does nothing special to send the data encrypted, BT itself will ensure that it's safe. Minus, of course, some malware that's running and inspecting the application in-memory or just watching the clipboard, but no encryption on earth will help you there.
Just a quick question, under security it says:
