FXOpen Introduces 2-Factor Authentication via Google Authenticator

July 4, 2014
FXOpen Introduces 2-Factor Authentication via Google Authenticator 

FXOpen has introduced a 2-factor authentication via the free mobile app ‘Google Authenticator’. This app ensures secured access to your FXOpen account. This mechanism is specifically designed to provide an extra layer of security for your personal data and minimize the risk of having them stolen. 

2-Factor Authentication (or 2-step verification) requires two types of credentials. In addition to your login and password, you will also be requested to enter a 6-digit code that will appear on a separate page when signing in to your FXOpen account. This code is generated by the system each time you try to log into My FXOpen. 

The 2-step verification option with Google Authenticator is compatible with Android, BlackBerry, iPad/iPhone or Windows Phone devices. This application is free to download and provides a secure soft method to verify a person’s identity. 

To turn on the 2-Factor Authentication, please check the detailed instructions in the FXOpen Knowledge Base 

Kind Regards
