CM Safeguard contains extensive tools to help protect accounts from fraudulent activity. From Destination Management to Recipient Limits and Alerts.
A One Time Password or OTP is a security code designed to be used for a single login attempt, to minimise the risk of fraudulent login attempts and maintain high security. It’s a string of characters or numbers automatically generated and sent to the user’s phone via SMS, Voice or Push message.
The OTP has become the standard method worldwide of enabling a login when special circumstances apply, such as validating a new account or confirming a transaction is legitimate.
Providers like CM.com offer OTPs as a service, with a secure platform for receiving or initiating OTP requests, sending the OTP as a text or other channel, and verifying the OTP was entered correctly, so the transaction can go ahead.
The infrastructure for making use of one-time passwords integrates with your website or application using an API. This is how a site “knows” whether an entered OTP is correct or not, with safeguards like checking it’s within the time window.
There are several ways to send an OTP. Some give the option of receiving OTPs by email, although this tends to be less secure. Other providers even enable OTPs as voicemails, stating the PIN aloud when the customer checks the mailbox.
But by far the most common way to send OTPs is by Push or text messaging, typically an SMS or even WhatsApp message to the customer’s mobile phone.
An OTP is generated automatically as a semi-random number or string of characters. There is no way to predict what the OTP will be ahead of time. OTPs are valid for a single login session or transaction, enhancing security by reducing the risk of unauthorised access even if the password is intercepted. Once used, the OTP expires, ensuring it cannot be reused for future logins or transactions.
Ensuring secure and convenient online interactions is more important than ever. Every business has unique needs when it comes to protecting its digital space and customer interactions, and different needs require different solutions. That's why CM.com has introduced its "Build Your Own Verification", a flexible and customisable verification tailored to each business's specific needs.
With cybercrime on the rise and rules and regulations rightfully getting stricter each year, you as a business must keep up with the pace of online security. Traditionally, a lot of organisations apply Multi- or Two-Factor Authentication (MFA or 2FA) to secure accounts and protect sensitive data. And for a lot of cases, it works well. But, to truly know your customers, Mobile Identity Services can help.
Securing online accounts, data and users is a must in business today. At least, if you don't want to end up as the next security breach headline in the papers. But simply implementing a few, disconnected security measures isn't always enough. Loose apps and services become vulnerable to fraud and are often cost-inefficient. That's why CM.com now offers a one-stop-shop to safely secure your business: Verification API.
Customer communication via SMS has become an integral part of the modern business landscape. In recent years, however, criminals have used SMS to steal data and money from both businesses and customers. But, to combat this, there's a new convenient, fast verification method to help businesses secure online accounts: Number Verify.
Cybercrime is on the rise. Criminals attempt to impersonate trusted businesses to extract personal details, login credentials and even banking information from customers. As a result, the trust between customers and businesses is damaged. So, how can you help your customers know which messages are legitimate? RCS Business offers verified sender profiles, helping customers identify official business accounts and engage with businesses with confidence.
In the current digital era, technological and online advances are rapidly growing, creating new ways for businesses to engage their customers. Unfortunately, where there is growth, there will be criminals trying to steal some of the profits. Protecting business data, customer information and online accounts is a priority for every modern business. SMS security can help protect your business and your customers from online fraud and cybercrime.
Enhancing platform security and implementing Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) processes are crucial for organisations to protect business and customer data. However, these security measures only work when employees and customers are willing to adopt and adhere to them. So, how can your business ensure employee and customer adoption? In this blog, we'll dive into Two-Factor Authentication (2FA), its benefits and best practices to ensure adoption.
In our digital age, email threats loom large, with phishing and spoofing becoming increasingly sophisticated. DMARC is the powerful shield that businesses and individuals need. This authentication protocol ensures email integrity, safeguarding against domain impersonation and cyberattacks. In this article, we demystify DMARC, explaining its significance in bolstering email security.
Chances are that you've received One Time Passwords (OTPs) before, often via SMS or email. But did you know there might be an even better platform to send OTPs on? WhatsApp Business Platform allows you to send One Time Passwords on your customers' favourite messaging channel, enhancing the customer experience and improving customer relations.
