A software application generating time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) or push notifications specifically for use with Amazon accounts to provide an extra layer of security. As an example, upon logging into an Amazon account, in addition to a password, a user is prompted to enter a code generated by this application on their smartphone or approve a notification.
Enhancing account security, this mechanism significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access due to compromised passwords. Its implementation provides a defense against phishing attacks, password breaches, and other unauthorized attempts to gain control of a user’s Amazon account. The adoption of this method represents a proactive measure in safeguarding sensitive information and maintaining the integrity of user accounts.
