Viber is launching a two-step verification feature
Rakuten, the world's leading
secure and voice-based messaging app, has announced the launch of a new
feature called Viber Two-Step Verification. An extra level of security will
help users keep their accounts secure by using a PIN code and email.
Viber, a safe and secure
platform, is committed to continuously introducing such new features. Viber
messaging is already end-to-end encrypted; As a result, third parties are
unable to access any of its data and the Disappearing Message feature ensures
users are aware of and controls who is viewing their messages. The recently
launched Two-Step Verification feature is another example of Viber's firm
commitment to privacy and security and will ensure the necessary protection for
users when communicating with Viber.
Users who choose to implement
the two-step verification feature will need to create a six-digit PIN
and verify their email address. To log in to Viber via a mobile device or
desktop, users need to provide their personal PIN code to verify the account.
If the user forgets the code, he will need to use a verified email address to
recover his account.
Also, if you have a PIN code,
you can deactivate the account using Viber on the desktop. If any user wants to
deactivate a Viber account via desktop, they need to use a pin code.
Viber's new feature will help
users implement additional security measures to ensure the privacy of their
accounts. Two-step verification prevents users' accounts from being hacked by
hackers by sending spam or using personal information.
Reducing the number of
non-verified accounts within the platform will not only reduce the number of
spam messages on the platform, but also create a more efficient and stable application
for users to communicate with loved ones worldwide. In addition, Viber is
working to ensure biometric security in the future.
Amir Ish-Shalom, Chief
Information Officer of Rakuten Viber, said that the privacy and security of
Viber users are always paramount. We are committed to providing users with a
secure, end-to-end encrypted messaging app, and we hope that this new feature
will take this app to new heights.
"Two-step verification
can scale back our users' security considerations and reassure users yet as
businesses regarding the most recent technology that Viber is exploitation to
stay the platform secure," he said. Viber' ballroom dancing verification
feature are disclosed in People's Republic of Bangladesh and alternative
