TeleSign’s Dual Factor Authentication really kept my web site from being infested with Spam and made sure only legitimate customers could access my site. With cooler weather settling in and driving rats or mice into many homes, out pest service attempted to start a website to promote fall rodent awareness along with a special offer for a complete house inspection. We got a lot of traffic on the site but unfortunately it quickly filled up with a lot of junk advertisements for companies that were selling their products and looking for free ad space. I had remembered hearing something on the news about 2 Factor authentication but thought it was designed for big corporations like banks and credit card companies. I was growing weary coming into the office each day and having to weed through or manually delete the growing volume of spam. After a couple of weeks of this routine I decided to see if there was a company that could help a small business like mine stay free of this nuisance. When I got on line and searched for 2 Factor authentication a company called TeleSign kept coming up on the search results page. After seeing some of their customer reviews I realized that they helped small business on a regular basis. I called and their representative thoroughly reviewed their Dual Factor authentication process with me. This system added a layer of security to websites because it required users to be verified through dual methods.








The first of these methods was a standard log-on and password that was already a part of my site. The second was sent by TeleSign in the form of a text of voice message to my customers phone containing a Personal Information Number or PIN. They needed this PIN to get authorized access to the site and order any of my services. I decided to go with TeleSign’s Dual Factor authentication, mainly because of the cost. Their pricing was so affordable for a small business owner like me and amounted to only a few cents per verification. Integration was not an issue with TeleSign because they used a SOAP API based process which was completely compatible with my existing site. The very same day I added Dual Factor Authentication the flow of junk on my site came to an end. TeleSign got rid of my spam and let me focus of getting rid of pests!
