PhoneFactor In The New York Times

Posted  October 10, 2008 By Sarah

PhoneFactor was featured in a New York Times article this week titled “Logging on Securely, and Confirmed via a Cellphone Call as a Sentinel Against Intruders.”

A deteriorating financial system isn’t the only fear online banking customers face. The specter of hackers snatching passwords or breaking into corporate computers is a constant threat. But defeating such criminals may be just a phone call away.

The article is in the Oct 9th print edition and online at http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/09/technology/personaltech/09phone.html?partner=permalink&exprod=permalink.

Texting Prices On The Rise

Posted  September 15, 2008 By Sarah

Bank Technolgoy News recently published a piece entitled “Rising Text Rates a Threat to M-Banking?” Apparently, text messaging prices have doubled since 2005 to an average of 20 cents per message. This doesn’t bode well for mobile banking or two-factor solutions that rely on one time passwords delivered via sms.

Posted  September 5, 2008 By Sarah

In our altruistic effort to enable two-factor authentication for the masses, we’ve made our LogMeIn version available at no charge. (Really we’re greedy capitalists and want to get the word out about PhoneFactor by giving it away to the rather large LogMeIn community.) Either way, you can benefit by enabling two-factor authentication for remote access to your computer using LogMeIn Free, Professional, and IT Reach products.
