We have seen recent attacks on Social Media Profiles, online financial services. Such incidents have serious consequences, for example, defamation, loss of personal data, and of course, loss of your hard-earned money. Imagine this happening at a bigger scale, for organizations. The outcome is disastrous.
Safe Haven’s Solutions:
One of the solutions currently available is a 2 Factor Authentication (2FA), which is a combination of your password and an SMS/ Google Authenticator/Authy code. Safe Haven has now introduced a new security layer, SafeKey, which is much robust and secure than the traditional 2FA systems.
Security:
SafeKey provides strong hardware encryption, made reliable in partnership with NitroKey. It stores your cryptographic key in a crypto processor. This makes it secure even if the device is stolen. Also, your protected accounts remain secure even if attackers have stolen your password.
Ease of Use:
After configuring SafeKey with your accounts, confirm login by simply pushing a button on the SafeKey.
Other notable features include:
- No additional software or driver installation is required apart from a supported web browser
- Any number of accounts of different kinds (e.g. websites, in-house proprietary systems) can be used to set up.
- Internal storage is available within the unit. The internal storage stores encrypted shares of private keys, passwords and account details.
- SafeKey has a life expectancy of greater than 20 years
- 100% open source and open hardware
- Safe Haven promises that there are no hidden security flaws
What next?
As a next step, Safe Haven will offer SafeKey integration to their exchange partners as an additional layer of security when combined with the Inheritance Solution.

Conclusion:
Safe Key might not be of use to a common individual immediately. Organizations that deal with confidential information, may find this to be a very important solution.
