This tool works exceptionally well for penetration tests or social engineering engagements. You can spoof your number while making calls and texts. It also has the ability to disguise your voice.

The Yubikey is revolutionary. The hardware Two Factor Authentication device integrates with hundreds of platforms and allows you to really lock down your account and rest assured no one will compromise them.
