According to Steve Watts, co-founder of SecurEnvoy - the tokenless two-factor authentication specialist(TM) , the fact that the security flaws also include social networking sites/services such as Facebook and Twitter - both of which have been repeatedly shown to have their security shortcomings - is enough to set the alarm bells ringing.
