Phew!!! We had some day today!!!
Why 2FA authentication??? Ask SEBI... Any terminal you work on, from APRIL 1st will have to follow the same rules... We need to see how many follow from the 1st...
How does it work??
1. When logging in the first time, you see an image.. You need to click on the box next to the image.. This gets saved in the system... The next time you login, the same image should ideally show up...
USE: If the image shown is different, you know that someone has probably reset your passwords...
2. Logging in the first time, you have to select 5 questions from a list of 20 questions and answer them... This gets saved and everytime you login, 2 random questions will be asked from the same questions you answered...
If the answer is different, you will not be allowed to login... (People, please work on your spellings.. If there is a spelling mistake it won't work, you will have to then ask us to reset your 2FA passwords).... Again a way SEBI intends to protect your passwords...
A quick fix for this answers is, answer all the 5 questions with a single character alphabet or numeral... This way you would be saving time while logging in... For eg, choose the letter a for all 5 answers...
