China is America’s enemy #1 in the cybercrime arena.
These days, the use of two-factor authentication – also known as “two step verification” – to access one’s domain registrar account, is a must.
Considered one of several methods to lessen potential loss of domains to a cybercriminal, two-factor authentication is utilized currently by several domain registrars.
Here are some:
GoDaddy offers the ability to require the dispatch of an SMS that contains a six digit code every time you log into your account. This service is offered to US customers only.
Uniregistry utilizes the Google Authenticator app, that can be used with your mobile phone.
Fabulous offers fob access, pioneering the two-factor authentication among domain registrars.
The question is, do domainers use such extra security layers, or do they consider them unnecessary or annoying even? That’s the subject of today’s poll.
