How they describe their product/innovation: All of previous authentications were focusing on “User Authentication” but we have designed and implemented brand new concept of “Service Authentication”. If a user meets fraud site likely MITM Attack, people will be stolen their credentials only with User Authentication. 2-step verification by SMS/Voice is an unsafe method because of mobile vulnerability and call forwarding. Therefore, we introduced the Mutual Authentication that Verifying the Service by the user prior to the User Authentication. Self-innovated context based User Authentication is using and certified solutions like as FIDO can be used for the User Authentication. This solution is a great alternative of 2-Step Verification and no password will make your life easy.
