Sound Proof - (meaning presenting "Sound" as "proof") for 2nd Factor Authentication method



Interesting idea


From the Article:

Dubbed “Sound-Proof” It will rely on ambient sounds. What happens here is that when you login, both your phone and computer will start listening for ambient sounds. When it determines that both devices are listening to the same thing, it will log you in, meaning that if for some reason the hacker managed to steal your generated code but your smartphone is in a different location, they won’t be able to get in either.
