mOTP - mobile OneTimePasswords 1.0


Category: Utilities
Price: Free (iTunes)

Description:

This application lets you generate One Time Passwords that are used for a more secure authentication (two-factor) - instead of having to enter a static password the iPhone plays the role as a "security token" that generates passwords that are valid only one time.

The authentication mechanism is based on two factors:
- the token device (i.e. mOTP-Application) and
- a PIN

Since the generated password is only valid for a very short time - it is of no use for a possible attacker.
Moreover the password can only be generated with a hold of the PIN as well as the token device.

Note:
- compare this solution with "Mobile-OTP" Midlet solution on http://motp.sourefourge.net- also free server components to be used e.g. as PAM can be found there.
- the algorithm uses MD5-hashing
- the clocks of your iPhone and your Server have to be in sync
