MRMLS i-Date: Extra Security Coming to MRMLS in Sept. 2008
The MRMLS Board of Directors has voted to implement security token strong authentication. SAFEMLS tokens, used in conjunction with your username and password, are the premier solution for protecting MLS access. Unauthorized access to vital MLS data has reached epidemic proportions, resulting in increased liability and compromised consumer privacy. WE MUST PROTECT OUR MOST VALUABLE ASSET, OUR DATA.
In September, MRMLS will begin distribution of the tokens and by the end of 2008, all users of MRMLS will be required to have a token to gain access. People will no longer be able to share passwords.
· Third-party authentication is the same security technology used by
aerospace and Department of Defense companies.
· Everyone will pay their fair share. Freeloaders will finally be forced to
sign up or lose access to MRMLS.
· Tokens will be provided at no extra charge to MRMLS members.
· There is nothing new to remember, just “push the grey button” and
enter the one-time-use password into the security field to gain
access to MRMLS.
If you do not want to carry a token on your key chain, use TEXT-pass and get your security code sent as a text message to your mobile phone or Supra key. (Additional one-time setup fee will apply.)
