SMS Authentication Service
Keep Your Customers SecureEffortlessly enhance security by verifying new accounts using Dexatel’s SMS authentication service. Our reliable solution provides seamless authentication for a peace of mind.
What Is SMS Authentication?
SMS authentication is a type of two-factor authentication (2FA) that enhances security by utilizing a user's phone number for identity verification. A unique 4–6 digit OTP SMS code is sent to the user's registered phone number.
Acting as a reliable means of verifying a user's ownership, the SMS authentication process helps businesses strengthen identity authentication while keeping it convenient and user-friendly.
Why is SMS Two Factor Authentication Important?
SMS two-factor authentication provides a vital layer of protection for your business, safeguarding both your sensitive data and your customers' accounts. Even if compromised credentials are obtained, access remains blocked without the unique code delivered to your phone.
