Normally we don’t delve in to the tech sector when we write blog posts, but this new login method without a password is so good, that we had to share.
I recently saw a short video about the guy in the movie “Catch Me If You Can”. His name is Frank Abagnale. The video was given at a Google internal event, and in it, Frank tells his life story. He now works for the FBI, and recommends this scam proof way to login online. (video link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsMydMDi3rI )
The new method is called TRUSONA and it uses your phone as verification to log in to websites. I think in a couple of years this kind of authentication will be prevalent, especially for banks.
We just installed this on our own website so we now use it to login. No more remembering passwords and much more secure.
Here is our login page (there is still an option to login the old way, but that can be turned off).
Try it out on our website here https://premierprecast.com/wp-login.php . Don’t worry, you won’t be able to login.
You will need to download the TRUSONA app to your phone first. (It’s free!)
To download for iOS, visit the App Store. For Android devices, visit Google Play.
