Avoid Common Cybersecurity Threats In Online Gaming:
Phishing Attacks
Online gaming was the most attacked industry in 2020 with the highest attack rate at 33% (10 percentage points higher than the average 23%)
Account Takeovers
A wide range of malicious activities such as obtaining combolists and credential stuffing enable fraudsters to harvest user credentials and break into accounts at scale.
Hussle With Passwords
Gaming platforms implement additional layers of authentication provoking general hatred of security
Poor Security Measures
The most popular methods of SMS and call-based MFA are vulnerable to the same security threats and give you a false sense of security

Seamless Multi-Factor Authentication
Multi-factor authentication based on FIDO U2F compatibility adds an extra layer of protection to your accounts in Google, Youtube, Facebook, AWS, etc. Hardware MFA devices are proved far more effective at securing your identity than software-based counterparts
Passwordless FIDO2 Authentication
Hideez Key can replace logins and passwords with a lightning-fast “passwordless” authentication for many popular web services
(Google and Microsoft services, AWS, popular social networks, etc.) based on compatibility with FIDO2 standard
WHAT IS FIDO AUTHENTICATION?
FIDO (Fast ID Online) is a set of specifications developed for strong and convenient authentication. It is developed by the FIDO Alliance, a non-profit organization that seeks to standardize authentication and eliminate the use of passwords across websites and apps.
There are three sets of specifications for authentication: FIDO Universal Second Factor (FIDO U2F), FIDO Universal Authentication Framework (FIDO UAF), and the Client to Authenticator Protocols (CTAP). Together, they are known as FIDO2 standard.
All FIDO protocols are based on public key cryptography and are strongly resistant to phishing (for more information, see How FIDO Works). For example, Hideez Key comes in the form of a small Bluetooth keychain. User unlocks it using a button and a securely-entered PIN instead of remembering a whole bunch of complex passwords.
The FIDO Alliance has more than 250 members, including global tech leaders across enterprise, payments, telecom, government and healthcare. FIDO standards are supported by major browsers and operating systems, such as Windows 10 and Android platforms, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge and Apple Safari browsers. The number of FIDO-enabled Platforms and browsers is constantly growing.
