Twitter is probably going to two-step-authentication. In a job ask the company to someone that the security measure is able to design and develop. Last Saturday it became known that hackers have broken into the servers of Twitter.
Two-factor-authentication allows users to not only enter a password but also a code that, for example, to the mobile phone of the user is sent. That should protect the security of accounts improve. Including Google, Facebook and Dropbox offer the heightened security already in use, and also in many business environments is the technique used, for example, with a separate device that when logging in, a unique code will generate, which need to be entered.
The news follows shortly on a hack on the servers of Twitter, which maybe access is obtained to data of 250,000 users, especially veterans who are in 2006 or 2007 had registered. The attackers knew of those users, including e-mail addresses, tokens of sessions and encrypted passwords of loot. It is unclear whether Twitter only after this hack decided to use two-factor authentication to enter.
