Hey, I need to move one day of Google Authenticator, and I was wondering if their was a project like Bitwarden for 2 Factor Authentication
Take care!
Aegis Authenticator for Android: https://getaegis.app/
Raivo OTP for iOS: https://raivo-otp.com/
2FAS however is cross-plataform, open source, and what I’m using right now: https://2fas.com/
Yes: Bitwarden.
Idk about the central instance, but I use my bitwarden (specifically vaultwarden) instance for my TOTP keys. I can just autofill and then it copies the current TOTP key and i can paste it in to log into whatever i’m logging into!
Bitwarden has TOTP included as a feature. Seems like lots of people don’t like using it though, and see storing the 2FA keys with the passwords as “putting all your eggs in one basket”.
Aegis seems to be the open source 2FA app of choice for privacy-minded people right now.
Wow, the program that keeps on giving, I’m surprised, I just checked, and I think I’m going to move my 2FA to Bitwarden
I use bitwarden for the bulk of my 2fas and aegis for the 2fa for bitwarden itself and a couple other sensitive/important sites that I want separated. Be sure to back up your 2fas somehow for bitwarden.
Bitwarden provides a facility for MFA. Though there’s an argument to be made against eggs + baskets. It might defeat threw purpose a bit.
I use Aegis which is opensource and easily encrypted and backed up locally. Saved my ass where I accidentally deleted my 2FA for Bitwarden, thus locking me out in circle of shite. Aegis allowed me to roll back and pull in that one missing key without having to redo a load i’d made since the last backup and all was good.
Yea, I think everyone that is saying Bitwarden supports 2FA is missing the point of 2FA. You don’t want it to be in the same place where all your passwords are, otherwise if someone gets access to your passwords they essentially can prove they are you.
That being said, I use a mixture of Authy + Bitwarden. Bitwarden for sites that require it but aren’t really a priority for me to keep separated, and Authy for 2FA codes that I prefer being separate from my passwords.
Reading everyone’s comments here I thought I would go full Bitwarden, but I get the idea of have the 2 factor’s coming from the exact same place
If you’re interested in moving away from Google Auth, look into a password manager for added security. Along with storing passwords, managers like 1password support 2FA and store your information in the cloud using a Zero Knowledge model. I’ve been using it for a few years and have not had any reason to use Google Auth.
Google Authenticator is just a UI for TOTP which is standardized. I’ve used Authy for many years. But there’s also many many implementations: https://search.f-droid.org/?q=totp&lang=en
i personally like freeotp made by redhat iirc

You can use Bitwarden Premium for 2FA keys. It’s pretty cheap and well worth it to support development ($10/yr).
If you’re on Android and don’t want to pay for Bitwarden Premium, I’d use something like Aegis Authenticator.
Yes, I do this too and really like it.
I personally think it’s best to keep 2FA keys out of password managers.
The whole point of 2FA is to have a seconds factor to authenticate you.
If someone gets access to your password vault with your 2FA keys, they have access to all of your accounts - 2FA protected it not. If you keep the keys in another app, they cannot access your accounts nearly as easily.
It’s rather unlikely someone would get access to your vault if you use a physical authentication key like YubiKey. However, I take your point. I personally keep my 2FA, passwords, and backups in separate places.
The reason why I answered with Bitwarden as 2FA is because OP asked what was the Bitwarden of 2FA, so obviously OP didn’t know Bitwarden itself had that feature.
I use andOTP on Android. Has encrypted backups, supports various OTP protocols, and is just generally a good UX.
Yubikey is a good option. It supports totp for sites that don’t support physical keys.
I have been tempted to get yubikeys but it seems like a hassle to have two and keep them in “sync”.
I personally use yubioath for anything that doesn’t support yubikey. Sounds like that isn’t a solution for you (maybe a totally different, open source hardware key?).
I’d recommend against putting your 2FA inside bitwarden. It’s not a very good second factor if both factors can be exposed by getting into your bitwarden.
It not that isn’t absolutely not a solution, but more that I want to split work and life, and I know I could have some remarks if my collegue see the app of the keys used on my not work phone and I could just avoid certain discussions
