==One-time password?==
Isn't this basically a form of [[one-time password]]s? Shouldn't this be described in both articles? --[[User:ZeroOne|ZeroOne]] 12:59, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

First, 'hackers'.. Should Wikipedia tolerate both uses of the term? Personally, I think it is important to distinguish and start working against the widespread misuse of the term.
Isn't the TAN method secure? Well, there is no 'secure' system! There is the probability of a system becoming compromised, that is it. And indeed, in respect to the simple password method, the TAN does decrease this probability.
A trojan that 'intercepts' https? If interception means to encounter while en-route, the sentence is misleading. Indeed, the trojan on discussion taps directly at the source - this has nothing to do with https.
Well, there's still some work to do. The article is quite stub-like, and needs some sectioning to distribute the emphasis properly. I would also like to see some info on how secure the TAN generating algorithm is, etc.
