Verified by Visa and MasterCard SecureCode: or, How Not to Design Authentication. [via]
This is a very interesting paper; it confirms most of the basic misgivings I’ve had about the 3D Secure model of online card approval. (Basically: it’s not that it’s inherently not very secure, although it is, it’s that it encourages people to be overly trusting of weird middleman attempts to get financial information. I mean… a frame pops up, which shows no obvious signs of whether or not it’s secure, coming from a domain which has no obvious connection to the card provider, registered in another country…)
I’m not that much of a online reader to be honest but your blogs really nice, keep it up!
I’ll go ahead and bookmark your site to come back later on. Cheers
