SMS Authentication

Besides Google 2FA, SMS (short message service) authentication is also an important setting for your account security. Compared with Google 2FA, SMS has less steps to conclude.

SMS authentication consists of four steps:

  1. Choose the registration country of your phone number.
  2. Enter your phone number
  3. Then click the ‘‘Submit” button
  4.  Get your SMS code and enter it into the input box.

The SMS authentication will be successfully bound to your account if all above mentioned information are correct and accurate.

What is Google 2FA?

Google 2FA is an important way for security verification, which is in coordination conducted by the web-end and the mobile-end. The “Security” page in the security center provides two ways of authentication: 2FA (Google Authentication) and SMS (Phone Authentication). You can enable either of them. Here we give 2FA (Google Authentication) as an example.

Steps of Google 2FA are as following:

  • Download the app “Authentication”. IOS users can download this app from the APP Store and users with Android devices can download it from their application stores.

  • Open the app “Authentication”, click “+” at upper right corner, choose ‘‘scan barcode” and open the scanning frame.

  • Use the camera to scan the QR code provided by Huulk.

  • Check your 6-digit pin corresponding to your Huulk account in your cellphone end and enter it into the input field. Now your account is connected to Google 2FA.

How to disable Google 2FA?
  1. Please log in to Huulk, go to My profile and then find Security login options.
  2. Click “Disable” in Google Auth section.
  3. You can disable each category except for the Email. Email verification is required.

Universal 2nd Factor

Universal 2nd Factor (U2F) is an open authentication standard that strengthens and simplifies two-factor authentication (2FA) using specialized USB or NFC devices based on similar security technology found in smart cards.

The USB devices communicate with the host computer using the HID protocol, essentially mimicking a keyboard. This avoids the need for the user to install special hardware driver software in the host computer, and permits application software (such as a browser) to directly access the security features of the device without user effort other than possessing and inserting the device. Once communication is established, the application exercises a challenge–response authentication with the device using public-key cryptography methods and a secret unique device key manufactured into the device. The device key is secured against duplication by a degree of social trust in the commercial manufacturer, and logically secured against reverse-engineering or counterfeiting by the robustness of the encryption and physical possession.

 See below, some examples of U2F devices:

  1. Yubikey
  2. Trezor Model T
How to use Yubikey.

The YubiKey is a hardware authentication device manufactured by Yubico which supports one-time passwords, public-key encryption and authentication, and the Universal 2nd Factor (U2F) protocol.

  1. Insert your Yubikey device into the USB port, wait until it has been installed
  2. Once you plug in the YubiKey, the LED on the device should light up
  3. Press the gold button for one second – the code from the YubiKey will be automatically entered in the selected field
How to set up your trezor?

The Trezor Model T is the cryptocurrency hardware wallet designed to be a vault for Capricoin. Users can safely store their Capricoins, passwords and other digital keys via this device. Trezor Model T also supports more than 500 coins. .

The Model T can also serve as an U2F hardware token using its screen to inform users about the request for authentication before they will be approved. In this way, Trezor Model T protects users twice from various kinds of cyber-attacks. It offers an intuitive and convenient interface.

The Model T belongs to the most secure vaults using a 4-digit PIN code on its touch-screen. The PIN code and the passphrase are entered exclusively on the device’ touch-screen, hence any communication with the hosting computer is disabled until the correct PIN code is entered. Any operations with private and public keys are allowed only after a successful user authentication via PIN code. This makes the hardware wallet even more secure.

In case you ever lose your device, you can directly recover your entire wallet by using the 12-word recovery seed. Passwords are never stored or remembered on the device and they are individually locked and encrypted with the Trezor Password Manager.
