Elon Musk Says Tesla Two-Factor Authentication “embarrassingly late” However Coming Soon
Welcome to "The Outwrite Podcast". This article is published on www.theoutwrite.com by Varun Singh Rajput.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk responded to a tweet on Friday, stating that Tesla Two-Factor authentication for Tesla is embarrassingly late. However, the second part of the tweet ensures that it’s in the final state and would be coming soon.
Tesla’s 2FA was expected last year wherein Elon Musk mentioned while responding to the Twitter user in 2019. He clearly said that Tesla’s making foundational upgrades to the core Tesla corporate Operating System. And consumers can expect two-factor authentication right after that.
It’s been more than a year, and still, there are no official statements around the timeline of 2FA. Tesla vehicles are the most advanced and known as anti-theft due to the loaded security features. Incorporating two-factor authentication would be another milestone for Tesla.
The company powers up Tesla users with as many advanced features as possible through Tesla mobile app. Even newer vehicle models of the company, allow consumers to use their smartphones as a key when Bluetooth is enabled. The app has functions to lock and unlock the car remotely, access the HVAC system, control charging, etc.
Two-factor authentication would be another powerful security feature the company can gift to their customers. Once it’s enabled, the owner has to authenticate himself with a password along with a device like a phone, or authenticator app – which could be SMS.
Elon Musk’s tweet, which was in response to Twitter follower’s question “Sorry, this is embarrassingly late. Two-factor authentication via SMS or authenticator app is going through final validation right now.”
Evaluating Musk’s tweet consumers can expect two-factor authentication soon for Tesla vehicles out there. But, we had seen commitment in Musk’s tweet last year too.
I believe the best we can do for now is wait for an official statement to release.
