Changefly Security

What is anonymous authentication?

Anonymous authentication is a way to verify a user’s identity without revealing their personal information, like their email address, phone number, or username. It uses strong encryption techniques and temporary tokens to grant access to services securely and privately.

Why is traditional authentication insecure?

Traditional authentication relies on personal information that can be easily compromised through data breaches, phishing attacks, and social engineering. Hackers exploit this information for financial gain, identity theft, and various fraudulent activities. Even multi-factor authentication methods can be circumvented through sophisticated techniques like MFA bombing and SIM swapping.

How does Changefly ID work?

Changefly ID is a unique, time-limited, and cryptographically secure code generated by the Changefly app. This code acts as your anonymous identifier when interacting with online services. It’s tied to your device and protected by additional safeguards, ensuring only you can use it.

What are the advantages of using Changefly ID?

Changefly ID offers several benefits:

• Enhanced Privacy: Your personal information remains hidden, reducing the risk of exposure in data breaches.
• Reduced Identity Theft Risk: Dynamic, temporary tokens make it difficult for hackers to steal your identity or access your accounts.
• User Autonomy: You control your digital identity without relying on centralized authorities.
• Seamless User Experience: No more remembering multiple passwords or managing passkeys.
