Is there any domain register that offers 2 factor authentication to make changes that are detrimental to a site?

I have Network Solutions, KVC Hosting, and have tried 1and1, but all of them...from a security standpoint...are lackadaisical when it comes to security.

Network solutions WANTS their clients to bundle userid's into 1 account...that makes it easy.

KVC, I emailed them to update my domain contact info, then I transferred one of my domains out with that new email.

I never did any test with 1and1...but then again the 2 above (with kvc and netsol) weren't even tests.

Another security breach involving GoDaddy(1)?

Gandi, mentioned several other times in this thread, also supports 2FA. https://wiki.gandi.net/en/contacts/login/2-factor-activation

You can also create a second account there and delegate limited rights to it for making changes. The odds of losing both accounts are remote.

Hover has 2fa as well.
Even Dreamhost has two factor authentication.
