The well-known website Kickass Torrents (KAT) πρόσθεσε ένα επιπλέον επίπεδο ασφάλειας για τους χρήστες της, παρέχοντάς τους τη δυνατότητα να ενεργοποιήσουν τον έλεγχο ταυτότητας δύο factors (2FA) through their account.
The new addition is known as two-factor authentication or 2FA for short and adds is a second level of control in addition to the code access.
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 major Web services such as Facebook and Google, and it may seem extravagant for a torrent site.
But there are also some who will appreciate the gesture of 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 use mobile apps such as OTP Auth or Free OTP and say good to avoid Google Authenticator.
