Title: Free, instant two-factor authentication now available at ExchB Post by: weex on August 03, 2011, 06:50:28 AM Free, instant two-factor authentication now available at ExchB
2011-08-03 - We are extremely pleased to announce that free, instant two-factor authentication is now available to all users at ExchB. We feature telephone support, quick & easy deposit by check, low 0.54% trade fees without a referral code, and now: even better security for your account with two-factor authentication. Also, get 50% off trade fees for 30 days with this referral code: twofactor (https://www.exchangebitcoins.com/en/r/twofactor) Two-factor authentication makes it more difficult for unauthorized users to access your account. Normally, single-factor authentication requires proof that you know something (like a password). Two factor authentication adds the requirement that you have something (like a phone or a key) as well. Two-factor authentication PROTECTS YOU when someone gets one of factors required to authenticate.

Two-factor authentication DOES NOT PROTECT YOU from a man-in-the-browser attack, where your web browser is compromised. If your device is compromised, the attacker can take over your web session after you authenticate. Two-factor authentication DOES NOT PROTECT YOU from a man-in-the-middle attack, where someone intercepts messages between your computer and the web server. You can protect yourself from man-in-the-middle attacks by making sure you login into the correct web site, that SSL security is enabled with no warnings displayed.

Will you guys provide a way to double-check the bitcoin legitimacy in one's account through a publicly available purchase ID of past trades which in return are uniquely linked to their correlating transaction ID in the bitcoin chain network as described in this forum post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=34118.msg425670 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=34118.msg425670)?

But I like that you provided 2 part verification.
Good luck, |
