A new decentralised two-factor authentication (2FA) application has been introduced on the Internet Computer, offering a secure and user-friendly alternative to traditional authentication methods. Developed by @Icpspace in collaboration with Caffeine ai, this application aims to enhance security without compromising user experience.
The AI Authenticator stores time-based one-time password (TOTP) secrets on-chain, encrypted and tied to the user’s Internet Identity. This approach eliminates concerns about device lock-in or data loss, providing a more secure and flexible solution for users. The application supports both QR code scanning and manual entry for adding accounts, ensuring a seamless onboarding process.
For those needing to migrate their accounts, the AI Authenticator offers encrypted AES-256 QR code exports. These passphrase-protected exports facilitate secure account transfers across devices. The application is compatible with major web browsers like Chrome and Safari, as well as mobile platforms including Android and iOS, ensuring broad accessibility.
Designed with individuals, teams, and organisations in mind, the AI Authenticator aims to provide a robust 2FA solution that balances security with ease of use. Its integration with the Internet Computer’s decentralised infrastructure highlights the potential for blockchain technology to enhance everyday digital security practices.
