5sec Google Authenticator 2-Step Login Protection (Utilities)

Purchase $15.00

Add bank-grade security powered by Google to your site

Each login requires a new, unique, time restrained OTP (one time password) your phone generates. Even if someone knows your password they won’t be able to login. If someone tricks you into clicking “remember password” on an unsafe computer – it won’t matter! If someone steals an old OTP – even that won’t matter because they’re valid for only 2 minutes!

Forgot to log out? No worries!

The auto log out feature protects your account by automatically logging you out after a preset amount of time. You won’t leave the page as the log in form will be opened in a lightbox. After you enter a new OTP you’ll still be on that page and continue doing work.

Brute-force attacks got you pinned down? We have your back!

Built-in IP based brute-force protection ensures ease of mind even in the worst scenarios when you’re attacked by thousands of bots. Fine tuning of the ban rules allows you to ban them from logging in or even from accessing the whole site. Don’t worry, you can easily whitelist your own IP so you don’t lock yourself out.

Features

• two step login process adds extra protection to your site


• no extra SMS charges or anything simmilar


• nobody can hack you even if they know your password


• nobody can login to your account without your phone and a freshly generated OTP
