MemphisBelle Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) Hello ED, I was browsing my Modules on the website and got aware about all the money I put on my particular Hobby. In this special matter I wonder about a major issue that regards the DCS Website. As far as I can estimate it, so it should be possible for a hacker to crack my account and steal all my worthy Modules and thus my invested money. Wouldnt it be possible to implement a 2 step verification Process to the website in order to avoid such a thing? I´m thinking about the easiest way which is sending a code to my smartphone or my emailadress to get access, thus a hacker can crack my Account but will nonetheless not have access to my Account. Another solution would be the google authenticator app to provide respective security. There´re many websites around already that provide that type of security. Steam, Uplay, PayPal are good examples and many more. Have you already been thinking about that or are you considering it in general? Thanks and kind regards Memphis Edited January 16, 2018 by MemphisBelle DCS-Tutorial-Collection BlackSharkDen - Helicopter only Specs:: ASrock Z790 Pro RS; Intel i5-13600K @5,1Ghz; 64GB DDR5 RAM; RTX 3080 @10GB; Corsair RMX Serie 750; 2x SSD 850 EVO 1x860 EVO 500GB 1x nvme M.2 970 EVO 1TB; 1x nvme M.2 980 Pro 2TB+ 3 TB HDD Hardware: Oculus Rift S; HOTAS Warthog; Saitek Rudder Pedals, K-51 Collective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firmek Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I hope that I'll not have to provide my phone number. That would be a step too far. Don't mind a double verification through an email though.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted January 16, 2018 ED Team Share Posted January 16, 2018 most places that use verification for security use apps like 2FA or Authy I imagine it would be around that sort of thing, and Usually 2 stage verification is optional, but we will have to wait and see what ED come up with.
