Nope, several years ago someone complained that their steam account has better protection then their bank account. We’re now in 2023 and that statement still holds. It’s quite scary really. Bank websites that heavily rely on third party scripts ,“MFA” logins based on something you know and something you know. Account verification question based on code words or security questions based on public information. Worst of all, the ignorance of it all. “We got hacked, here have a identity protection bandage, comes with an automatic subscription after several years”.
There are some that do, true, but also a boatload that don’t. In my personal experience, most don’t.
Most do, unless they’re some small town bank. That could be the difference, perhaps.
I wanted to use a 2FA device for my banking accounts and no bank that I have spoken to would allow it. I’d had a breach on one account because my information had been leaked from several different places including the federal government and a credit agency and as a result the person used my leaked information to validate their way into my checking account. At that point they let me set up a pass phrase and a couple of other random safeguards. This was all well and good but it didn’t make me feel safer than having that account protected by a physical 2FA device. I was also given more free credit monitoring (which I’ve gotten like 4 or 5 times in the last 10 years or so). Still bugs me to this day.
Bank of America has two factor and optional 3 three factor integration, what are you talking about?

Bank of America is not one of the banks I talked to because I will never bank with them again. I was 18 and they sent me (unsolicited) a credit card when I opened my first checking account. It had A 35% interest rate.
Here’s the silly thing - most other countries have had a form of 2FA for decades. Yes, decades. Some of the earliest ones used to sent you a printed list of codes and asked you a random code from that list. This was before the Internet even when you had to use a modem to dial in to a bank to transmit your transactions.
