GateKeeper, open source site opened …
A new site has been opened which allow to support the GateKeeper development effort.
GateKeeper is an authentication bar that operates from the Firefox browser chrome area (no access to remote scripts…) and that allows password authentication using the SRP algorithm. This renders password authentication insensitive to Phishing or other MITM attacks.
Additionally the GateKeeper bar collaborates with a relevant authentication portal to authenticate the website into which user is about to enter (runtime certification…)
Sites that use GateKeeper authentication are completely immune to Phishing or other MITM attacks. GateKeeper can use static password or KerPass OATH one time password, this last combination providing optimal resistance against brute force, spyware and MITM.
