Circa 2003-01-08 15:20:27 -0500 dixit Derek Simkowiak:

: You should at least require a memorized password in addition to the
: client cert. But passwords are easily caught; a handicam with a big
: zoom lens does the trick. Bigger companies usually require a
: SecurID token or biometric (i.e. handprint). For a cool toy see
: http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/security/5a6c/.

For an explanation of why that's only a cool toy and not real
authentication, see:
