Frequently Asked Questions
PIN Code
Combines ease of access with
true two-factor authentication
1. What is MeetX PIN Code?
The PIN Code is a modern alternative to traditional forms
of authentication such as a User ID and password or
certificates.
2. What are its benefits?
A simple numerical code alleviates the frustration of
cumbersome passwords. At the same time the MeetX
PIN code is more secure than an 8-digit password.
3. How is a PIN more secure than a user name and 8-character password?
On MeetX, the PIN is tied to the device through a signed
private key. This produces a true second factor.
4. How does the PIN security compare with that
of certificates?
Certificates and the MeetX PIN code are both 2-factor
architectures. They offer an equivalent level of security.
