Customer-centered Next-Generation Mobile Security Keypad Solution LIKEY, Equipped with One-Time Data Creation and Free UI Design Functions
Mobile application security specialist Lockin Company (CEO Myung-gyu Choi) announced on the 24th that it has launched a new mobile security keypad solution LIKEY that meets customer needs for strong information protection and free UI design.
LIKEY is a completely new and safe mobile security keypad solution that converts all information entered with a virtual keyboard, such as a public certificate password in a bank or fintech app, into one-time data (One Time Data) and transmits it to the server.
Existing mobile security keypads have a vulnerability in that encryption keys can be inferred or decrypted based on repeated patterns because they use an encryption method. On the other hand, when you enter personal information through LIKEY, different one-time data is output and sent to the server each time. It is characterized by the fact that it is impossible to decrypt the input information with one-time data, so personal information can be safely protected.
In particular, LIKEY is receiving great attention from financial customers because it can establish an independent security system by issuing a unique identification value for each company or project. Recently, amid a series of personal information leak incidents, LIKEY is being evaluated as a next-generation security keypad introduced by companies that prioritize personal information protection, and it is receiving great attention because it can prevent personal information leaks at the source with one-time data.
One of the biggest features of LIKEY is that customers can design the UI of the security keypad themselves. The existing security keypad UI applied to domestic financial institutions and fintech service apps only partially reflects the requests of customers, and most of the designs are uniform, making it difficult for customers to change or modify them at will. One of the advantages of LIKEY that is considerate to customers is that customers can directly set the background color, top bar, button size, margin settings, arrangement interval, and button color to match the app service UI.
Lockin Company, which developed LIKEY, is a specialized company that provides mobile app security services such as source code obfuscation, encryption, app forgery prevention, and malicious hacking tool detection through ‘mobile app security service LIAPP’. With the launch of this mobile security keypad LIKEY, even more powerful app security effects can be expected when used in conjunction with LIAPP, and the scope of app security that companies can utilize will be further expanded.
Vice President Son Chung-won of Lockin Company said, “With the recent fintech craze, the importance of app security such as mobile payment is also being highlighted, and the importance of mobile keypad security is also being emphasized,” and “LIKEY can not only protect users’ personal information entered through mobile devices, but also safely protect the company’s important data-based assets, and is ideal for next-generation mobile service companies that prioritize customer experience with free UI design settings.”
Meanwhile, Lockin Company is a mobile application security specialist that provides ‘LIAPP’ to clients in various fields such as public, financial institutions, games, fintech, healthcare, and AI, and has been installed on more than 50 million devices worldwide. Major domestic clients include KB Financial Group, Asiana Airlines, and Coinone, and it provides strong security services to global companies in countries around the world including Sweden, Egypt, Chile, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Japan, and Taiwan. In addition, it was selected for the Application Shielding Market Guide list by global research firm Gartner in both 2017 and 2018, and its strong mobile app security technology has been recognized overseas.
