The BRD@ffice Mobile and M-Token apps are additionally protected with the help of the technologies embedded in the apps and in their execution environment, these technologies being able to: control the execution of the app, to detect and prevent the attacks in real time.
To authenticate into the BRD@ffice site or in the BRD@ffice mobile app, the users can use the token dedicated for the iOS/Android phones/tablets, M-Token or the physical Token, both having maximum mobility and security. Thus:

- M-Token/token device are using dynamic passwords (OTP - One Time Password), these passwords being available for a short time.

-The physical token device is protected with PIN.

- Depending on the phone/tablet type where is installed, M-token can be protected with fingerprint/face recognition/PIN code.

- M-Token is working like embedded in BRD@ffice Mobile, by ensuring the transmission of the authentication message used for login or signature through a secure channel that that connects Mobile and M-Token apps.

- To authenticate in the BRD@ffice site, M-Token is using the CRONTO technology. This innovative solution for visual signing of the transactions allows banks to fight against “Trojan” or “Man in the Browser” attacks. CRONTO represents the ideal combination between ease of use, security and cost, allowing the users to check and sign their transactions form anywhere at any time.

-To sign transactions, users having physical token are authenticating with the Sealing method. Thus, the user will enter into the Token 2 numbers that are displayed into the BRD@ffice site to generate the signature code that will also be filled in the site. The numbers that are used to generate the signature codes are tidily connected with the paying amount and the beneficiary IBAN accounts, making impossible the reutilization of the returned codes for signing other amounts or beneficiary accounts.
