Safeguard your account security, Fortex 7 updates with two-factor authentication feature

In an era of ever evolving cyber threats, protecting client accounts is imperative. Fortex 7 introduces two factor authentication (2FA) feature to add an extra layer of security for brokers of all sizes. By importing login credentials, integrating SMS-based verification scheme or one-time password (OTP) directly into our trading platform, each trading account is protected against the risk of static login being compromised.

Inspired by the need from the regulatory bodies to thwart rising SMS phishing attacks in some region, which licensed firms shall enroll in sender registration programs and deploy breach detection systems, our solution seamlessly supports both login credential imports, SMS verification and OTP. We ensure you stay ahead of regulatory mandates and deliver uncompromising security to your clients.

In a recent onboarding, Fortex successfully implemented the 2FA for a large, fully regulated brokerage in Taiwan to ensure full compliance with the region’s stringent account security requirements. In parallel, Fortex integrated its SMS verification feature with the local regulatory system in Hong Kong to help combat phishing scams. These implementations demonstrate Fortex’s commitment to offering enterprise-grade security while preserving a seamless and user-friendly login experience for both brokers and traders.

Whether you're a start-up or an established global broker, you can enable the 2FA in our trading platform based on your regulatory landscape to boost client trust by reducing fraudulent logins and providing differentiated offerings in a competitive market. Let's work together to demonstrate our unwavering commitment to account safety and solidify your reputation as a security first brokerage.
