In the age of sim swapping, I tend towards using my landline for security such as receiving 2FA codes from banks etc because I believe it to be more secure.
But in the age of VOIP, am I correct in believing this i.e. that a landline gives me more proection from hackers.
Does VOIP make a landline just as vulnerable as a mobile?

What makes you think a standard landline is not vulnerable?

Later Voip hardware support encryption. To quote Cisco:
"The ATA 190 Series supports the latest encryption with Transport Layer Security (TLS), Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-2) and new Secure Real-time Protocol (sRTP) cipher suites."

The age of VoIP started well over a decade ago. Companies have been learning in the meantime.
I once received a call from Nigeria (if I remember correctly) with a UK-based number. Which was a bit naughty. (it was over the internal company network, and not routed externally - bar over privately leased lines)
