FortiToken Mobile: A Secure OTP Generator for Multi-Factor Authentication
FortiToken Mobile is a mobile application generating one-time passwords (OTPs) for robust multi-factor authentication (MFA). This OATH-compliant app utilizes both time-based and event-based OTP generation. It seamlessly integrates with Fortinet's FortiOS, FortiAuthenticator, or FortiToken Cloud services for secure OTP validation, offering a highly secure, user-friendly, and cost-effective MFA solution.
Privacy and Security Assurance:
Rest assured, FortiToken Mobile prioritizes your privacy. It cannot access or modify your phone's settings, capture media (photos, videos, audio), access your email, or view your browsing history. It requires explicit permission for notifications and setting adjustments, and it cannot remotely wipe your device. Any data access is limited to verifying your operating system version for compatibility purposes. Sensitive data, such as email addresses and token seeds, is only required during manual token installation, third-party token setup, or token transfers.
