What you need to know about the two-factor authentication service
Every day we hear about the hundreds of crimes that committed in the online sphere: personal accounts are hacked, bankcards are charged, and personal information is made public. Certainly, the worries about how to avoid such crimes do bother us.
The Devino Telecom experts believe that a two-factor authentication service remains one of the simple and effective ways to tackle fraud in the online space. It is based on user identification using two different types of authentication data. In most cases, a person receives an SMS that contains a unique code. This system ensures reliable protection of the account against unauthorized access.
The use of a two-factor code is most common in the following cases:
- Login to the personal account of a bank or an online store.
- Creating a social media account and log in to a personal profile.
- Protecting an email when signing in to an account from a new device, location, or a network.
- Websites administration process.
- Confirmation of a transaction.
- Activation of electronic signature programs.
The operation of the service is based on the fact that the user enters not only his/her username and password but further confirms it again while logging in to their personal account or making a transaction. At the first stage, the customer uses discreet information that only he/she is aware of (profile login information). At the second stage, the system of receiving the verification code via SMS or a special application installed on the smartphone is utilised.
Devino Telecom offers one of the most popular and simple authentication methods – sending SMS. A message comes to the user to confirm his/her identity after he/she enters the password. The service is inexpensive, requires low technical maintenance and it runs smoothly.
Two-factor code is an excellent solution for companies whose business is directly connected with the Internet and that work with a large customer base. The service can be easily integrated; its operation does not raise any questions and does not require the purchase or lease of special equipment. Two-factor authentication adapts to any configuration depending on the needs of the business and creates 100% protection against hacking.
