[ncc-services-wg] RIPE NCC Security Update

This is a very good point, and I can see where the issue would occur when
the OTP application used doesn't support migration to a new device (which
some don;t in my experience). Another thing I (among other network
operators) would like to see is the implementation of support for WebAuthn
and multiple hardware keys. It's not solely sufficient in my opinion to
have only a single method of 2FA possible, so the support of different
types of 2FA would be great to have implemented prior to 2FA becoming
mandatory.

Kind regards,
Peter Potvin
