A safe mode for your personal profile in the system will be available in upcoming updates.
A safe mode for your personal profile in the system will be available in upcoming updates.
Safe mode will allow the profile owner to:
— protect the right of the profile owner to perform sensitive transactions such as editing personal and contact information, creating groups, sending messages, triggering alarms, and making transactions.
— Prevent profile theft as a result of criminal activity.
To switch your profile to safe mode, you must have the mobile app that allows you to change the modes.
When you switch to safe mode, the application will connect to the Fenomy Blockchain, register the first block in the network, and do so 4 to 8 times per day.
The profile’s owner must also specify a cool down period ranging from 3 to 90 days, as well as the types of operations that will be subject to additional network verification.
How does safe mode work
When performing sensitive transactions, a special request to the network is made to verify each operation.
Following receipt of an operation request for verification, the network will send a confirmation request to the device that originated the oldest block source code, which should be older than the established cool down period.
When the source code and age of the block are confirmed, the operation is validated and the right to perform it is confirmed.
The operation is not carried out if there is no block source code on the device.
What this provides
In the event that the secret code is stolen or lost, a person with criminal intent will be unable to perform operations using the profile in question during the cool down period, and the true owner will be able to change the secret code and retrieve the account.
Any suspicious transaction attempts from the profile will be reported to the owner.
Nuances
— When safe mode is enabled, authorization in the web application without the mobile app is impossible.
— Only while online will you be able to make changes to your profile. Offline, only emergency functions are available.
— The application’s permissions must be enabled at all times.
— If the main device is replaced, the owner must wait for the entire cool down period that they established when setting up safe mode before being able to perform operations with his own profile.
