Identifying Voice And Sms Api Providers For Two Factor Authentication Solutions

RoboForm securely stores user names and password when you log into a site, and supplies them when you return.

The process of confirming a user's identity, usually by requiring the user to supply some sort of token, such as a password, certificate, or ___________ .

During the identification phase, the user puts the finger on the same sensor, generating a new fingerprint image or template called query print. Minutiae points are carried out from the query print, and the matcher module compares the set of query minutia with the stored minutia templates or image in the enrollment database to find the number of similar minutia points. Because of variations present in finger placement and pressure applied to the sensor, the minutia points take out from the template and query fingerprints must be lined up, or submitted before matching. After line up the fingerprints, the matcher decides the number of pairs of matching minutiae-two minutiae points that have similar location and directions. The system decides the user's identity by comparing the match score to a

Authentication factors could be classified into four factors which are, factors that users never forget, factors that people use to get access, factors that people have on their body, and the location. To explain more, multifactor authentication is recommended because of the security incidents these days. The worst factor that I used in my life is password because it does provide less security and anyone could guess passwords. Right now, I am using passphrases even in my social media accounts. Another example is the PIN number at the ATM machine, it provides security but sometimes not active because of the scammers. Mobile applications help a lot in our life and some application have security roles that ensures the security and privacy. Biometric is another important method in protection using fingerprint is the most common way. Finally, getting the location of the user is an important method for security, a good example is location services in the phone or

5. Users must not share their account(s), passwords, Personal Identification Numbers (PIN), Security Tokens (i.e. Smartcard), or similar information or devices used for identification and authorization purposes.

4. Which of the following components can be used to measure the confidence in any authentication system?

36. The two-factor authentication generally combines “something you have” and “something you know” or “something you have” and “something you are.”

The next step option to further prevent this security will involve restricting access to data by requiring a password, personal identification numbers, or a callback procedure. This approach will restrict logon time to a maximum of 2 minutes; if the computer goes idle for 2 minutes, a login password will be required to gain access to the system. The only problem with previous approach will the redundant need to frequently reenter password, to alleviate this problem associated with redundant authentication, the organization can adopt the use of a biometric method of authentication, for example, the use iris scanner, fingerprint, or an electronic signature (Joos et al, 2010).

Initially we should start with identifying and defining the four security components to ensure we have a clear understanding of what they are and how to implement them. The components of information security are Confidentiality, Integrity, and availability also known as the CIA triad. Confidentiality in Information Security is defined as the protection of information from disclosure to unauthorized parties (Chia, 2012). Integrity in Information Security is defined as protecting data from being modified by those not authorized to do so. Authentication is defined as proof that the individual requesting access is who they say they are. Non-repudiation is an assurance that someone cannot deny something, in information security this might be completed

The process of verifying a person’s identity, also called authentication, plays an important role in various areas of everyday life. Any situation with user interaction where the identity is required needs a means to verify the claimed identity. One of the more obvious and commonly known application areas for identity verifying technologies, i.e. authentication, is the Logical Access Control to computer systems, where authenticity is normally established by confirming aclaimed identity with a secret password or PIN code.Traditional methods of confirming the identity of an unknown person rely either upon some secret knowledge (such as a PIN or password) or upon an object the person possesses (such as a key or card). But

The most important part in the Data Security is Authentication of user. The authentication is a process of verifying the identity of the users based on the credentials (username and passwords). “In security systems, Authentication is distinct from authorization which is the process of giving individuals access to system objects on their identity “(3). Authentication merely ensures that individual is who he or she claims to be, but says nothing about the access rights of the individual discussion. Passwords and passcodes are used to authenticate devices. Biometric scan technology are recently introduced to authenticate the users by finger prints, retina scanner and facial scanner. The reliability and security of the Biometric scan methods is superior to the Password Technology.

The Note 7 is one of the latest cellphones that was released by the Samsung phone company. Cellphones are a very handy tool that almost everyone has today. Thought history cellphones have advanced further and further. These days people can use cellphones to call and text people that are far away, access the Internet, play games and use cool features by using Apps, and much more. But what’s really interesting is the technology that goes into the phone that allows it to do all this. What could possibly go into this little device that allows you to have almost all the information in the world in the palm of your hands. The Note 7 has its fault like every phone but it fixes many of the problems from its predecessor, the Note 5. In this paper I will discuss the technology behind the Note 7, the many uses of the phone, the security aspects, the social aspects and the possible future uses of this phone.

OpenID is a decentralized, single sign-on authentication system for internet sites that require authentication for use. It was developed out of the need to create a different, easier and more secure, type of authentication system than using a password. OpenID was developed using the open source software model to be an interoperable protocol independent from any single organization OpenID allows users to log into websites with one single ID, instead of the user having to create and manage multiple accounts. To use OpenID, a user must first register with a website that supports OpenID. When viewing other sites that use OpenID, the user logs in with a redirect to a secure URL. With OpenID, the user’s email address will be available to websites requesting authentication, however it’s not the identifier. OpenID uses URLs as an identity; users will leave a site and return after authenticating with a third-party website. The user would connect to an OpenID enabled website, enter credential information, and then a POST is made with a BASE64 which is a website to provider request. The website would then redirect the user to the providers for login. The user’s password would be entered in automatically by OpenID and submitted; once verification is done the user is logged in to the site. Currently there are over one billion OpenID user accounts and over 50,000 websites that use OpenID.

With increasing rate of attacks, everyone today needs a reliable and secure system. Biometric systems fulfil the needs to a great extent as biometric traits are better than passwords or pins which have chances of being stolen and forgotten. Before using biometric systems enrolment phase is necessary during which the templates of the users are stored in the database. During authentication user 's claim is matched with the

Payment solutions have changed drastically over time, going from bartering goods in ancient times, using gold and silver, paying with cash and coins, using credit cards, and now mobile devices. There are five main types of mobile payments: mobile at the point of sale, mobile as the point of sale, mobile payment platform, direct mobile billing, and closed loop mobile payments (1). However, this paper will focus on the three most familiar to college students and young adults.
