Google buys Israeli security startup SlickLogin
Google might be considering improvements to its two-factor authentication.
The search engine outfit has just written a cheque to buy SlickLogin which was a company only founded a year ago. SlickLogin developed a new smart identification Two-Factor Authentication which uses high frequency sounds as pass keys. The technology is expected to be put under the bonnet of Google's latest user identification security parameters
It is not clear how much Google paid for the company. Suggestions are that it was several million. But that is not bad considering the age of SlickLogin. The outfit was founded under a year ago by Or Zelig, Eran Galili and Ori Kabeli. The company first unveiled its technology at TechCrunch Disrupt held last September. It has not launched its product nor have they any customers to date.
