How MilaCoins security-first approach helps to protect your private data
Security patches address vulnerabilities in the system like operating systems, drivers, etc. These system vulnerabilities can be used by attackers to gain access to your device and gain control over important data. If not properly addressed, security patches may put your private data into danger. MilaCoins security-first approach tries to address system vulnerabilities and protect its users from data breach.
MilaCoins ensures the security of your account with a 2-step verification system. The 2-step verification system or 2FA is in fact a multi-factor authentication system. 2FA is important as it adds an additional security layer to your account in addition to username and password.
2-step verification is usually triggered by the following factors:
- Sign-in attempt from an unrecognized device
- Sign-in attempt from an unrecognized phone number
- Sending crypto out of your MilaCoins accounts (wallets)
More about 2FA you can read in our blog post “How to keep your funds secure”.
In this blog post, we will focus our attention on the new devices tracking option and will show you how MilCoins system tracks sign in attempts from unrecognized devices. Stay tuned!
When someone attempts to log in to MilaCoins account of our customers from an unrecognized device, MilaCoins automatically sends a notification letting them know about the unauthorized login attempt.
MilaCoins’ system is designed in the way that our customers can see all devices from which log-in attempts are made. Once a notification about suspicious activity has been received, our customer can either “ENABLE” or “DISABLE” a new device.
The “EDIT” option can be found in the top right corner of the device list board. The ENABLE/DISABLE option helps MilaCoins customers to regulate all login attempts to their account. Once an unauthorised device is disabled, its status is changing from “TRUE” to “FALSE”.
In addition, MilaCon’s device list tracking option allows you to track the time of the last login attempt, new device location, its IP address and type of the device from which the log in attempt has been made.
Developers at MilaCoins also paid special attention to a general view of all active devices. This means that MilaCoin users will now be able to control how new devices will appear on their screens.
MilaCoins offers its customers the option to view active devices in the form of a list or thumbnails. In order to view a list of active devices, the customer must click on the “SHOW ACTIVE DEVICES” button. There is also an option for “CHANGE TO THUMBNAILS” that serves to be an alternative to the list option.
Why did you receive a “NEW LOGIN ATTEMPT” to your email address?
At MilaCoins, we believe that protecting our customers’ accounts from data breaches is our number one priority. In this case, tracking all the unauthorised logins has become a priority of MilaCoins company. Moreover, MilaCoins’ security-first approach to data security makes it an attractive alternative for businesses and organizations looking for a secure payment gateway that will meet all their needs.
