Some of you may have already seen this. Yahoo! has implemented very easy to use a sign-in seal to help users recognize a genuine Y! login page. The seal is not tied to any user but to the browser/PC and to set it up a user doesn't need to enter any username/password either. With a personal picture it is very easy to recognize and use and there are no extra steps to perform when doing a login i.e. the login flow remains as simple as it is today. https://protect.login.yahoo.com/ Thanks Naveen _____ From: public-usable-authentication-request@w3.org [mailto:public-usable-authentication-request@w3.org] On Behalf Of Mary Ellen Zurko Sent: Monday, September 11, 2006 9:59 AM To: Thomas Roessler Cc: public-usable-authentication@w3.org Subject: Re: Status Update on W3C Security Work This story seems timely. If consumers are going to hold institutions accountable for phishing losses, institutions are going to demand an infrastructure that they reasonable use to thwart phishing attacks.
