The well-known websiteσελίδα Kickass Torrents (KAT) has added an extra layer of security for its users by enabling them to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) from within their account.
The new addition is known as a two-factor authentication or briefly 2FA and adds it is a second control level other than the password.
If activated in an account, the user, in addition to having to enter the correct username and password, must enter a second code that is sent to him via email or as an SMS on his phone.
2FA is a common feature in large services of the Web like Facebook and Google, and it might seem like overkill for a torrent site.
Σίγουρα όμως υπάρχουν και κάποιοι που θα εκpriceσουν τη χειρονομία του Kickass Torrents.
If you have a CAT account and you want to use the new feature, log in to the site and enable it from the Settings you will see if you put your mouse on your username in the upper right corner.
KAT administrators recommend users to use applications for cell phones, όπως τις OTP Auth ή Free OTP και αναφέρουν ότι καλή θα ήταν η αποφυγή του Google Authenticator.
