Six years ago the UK’s major mobile operators began to deploy a service called \u2018Number Verify\u2019 (here<\/a>), which made it both easier and more secure to authenticate a user’s identity for online transactions. Vodafone<\/a> has now announced that the UK, Germany and the Netherlands will be the first countries to get v2.0 of the phone number authentication API.<\/p>\n

Most consumers are probably already aware of the common Two-Factor Authentication<\/strong> (2FA) process, which works to verify users with a login\/password (or other method) by sending a one-time passcode (OTP) to the consumer\u2019s mobile phone. The customer then inputs that code into an app or website and are then able to complete the login.<\/p>\n

However, SMS OTP only confirms that someone entered a code sent to a mobile number. It does not prove that the real subscriber is present or that the authentication journey has not been compromised, which is something fraudsters often try to manipulate.<\/p>\n

The original Number Verify service simplified that process by verifying customers through matching phone numbers used in a website or app session, which ensured the details being provided are the same registered on the customer\u2019s account (this method was also PSD2 SCA<\/strong> \u2013 Strong Customer Authentication \u2013 compliant). But this still wasn’t perfect and over time fraudsters are adapting.<\/p>\n

By comparison, Number Verify 2.0<\/strong> improves that process and can now work over Wi-Fi as well as mobile data, including while roaming (v1 only worked with mobile data). Various other improvements have also been made, such as via OS-level integration and cryptographic SIM tokens (TS.43) – the latter are temporary, tamper-proof network tokens. The CAMARA API<\/a> (Application Programming Interface) is now also much more standardised.<\/p>\n

The new version thus gives businesses a “simpler, more secure and seamless way to verify a user\u2019s mobile phone number without SMS one-time passcodes<\/em>“. It uses the mobile network to verify that a user\u2019s phone number is associated with their SIM and device across both app and web journeys, whether the user is on mobile data or Wi-Fi.<\/p>\n

Johanna Wood, Director of Network APIs at Vodafone<\/a>, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cSMS OTP has been the default for over a decade, but it was never built for the threat environment we operate in today. Number Verify 2.0 changes that by giving developers a way to verify phone numbers that is faster, safer and seamless for the user.<\/p>\n

Launching Number Verify 2.0 simultaneously in three countries marks the start of our global rollout for enterprise customers.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The mobile number remains one of the most widely used identifiers for registration, login, account recovery and transaction confirmation, yet Vodafone<\/a> notes that the industry\u2019s default verification method has “not kept pace with modern fraud threats or user expectations<\/em>“. The new version is an attempt to address those shortcomings.<\/p>\n

Number Verify 2.0 is also said to offer enterprises, such as banks, retailers and social media platforms, multiple benefits, including:<\/p>\n

Higher conversion rates:<\/strong> removing manual mobile number entry, SMS wait times and code typing from onboarding, login and account recovery flows.<\/p>\n

More secure by design:<\/strong> eliminating human-readable OTPs that can be phished, intercepted or socially engineered.<\/p>\n

Keeps costs down:<\/strong> reducing unnecessary SMS spending, failed OTP attempts and exposure to artificial traffic.<\/p>\n

The upgrade is already said to be “now available<\/em>” in the UK, Germany and the Netherlands, albeit initially only on Android<\/strong> based devices (Smartphones, tablets etc.). But this is a system that is designed to ensure interoperability across other mobile operators and markets, so Vodafone won’t be the only one to deploy it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
