How does Authicon guard against keylogger attacks?


Since Authicon is built on 2-way authentication security, key logging (for capturing password) does not succeed in stealing identities. It should be noted that Authicon uses an icon board where you have to click on the icons and not type anything. Clicking the icons on the icon board does not show any signs that an icon has been clicked. If an icon set entered is wrong, a notification will appear. Only successful input of icon set will allow the user to access the account. Visit https://www.authicon.com!

How does Authicon guard against Brute Force Attack?

A Brute Force attack on Authicon is not feasible since there is a set limit of entering the icons. Once the user reached the set limit, there will be an alert or notification. If the user still tries to enter the wrong set of icons, there will be a timeout period. https://www.authicon.com

How does Authicon help reduce fraud?

Once the user successfully logs in to the website using the username and password, the Authicon icon board will be displayed to enter the preselected icons only user know. Once the user entered the icons, Authicon system will verify the set of icons. If it is recognized as valid, only then that the user can open his account. If the set of icons entered is not recognized by the system, an error message will display in the icon board prompting the user to enter the correct set of icons. This system protects the user from unauthorized login. More at www.Authicon.com
