Trampoline – Authentication via SMS
Challenge presented
Trampoline is a web application for creating and managing authentication portals for public wireless networks, hotspots and hotzones. Trampoline was looking for a secure, hassle-free method of user authentication for connections to public wireless networks, which would comply with current legislation while avoiding manual procedures and bureaucracy.
Actions undertaken
When accessing a public wireless network, users are asked to enter their mobile number. An access code is then sent to this number through the Skebby SMS gateway; the user types this code into the portal in order to verify their identity. And the fact that every mobile phone SIM is always associated with an ID card means the process is not only fast and automatic, but also fully compliant with current legislation.
Benefits delivered
By issuing identification credentials to the wireless network via SMS, the process has become automated, helping to save considerably on the costs of gathering personal data/archiving documentation by organisations or companies offering access to wireless networks (public services, hotels, etc.). Users can sign up quickly and automatically, using their mobile phones. "The best thing about having chosen Skebby is the amazed expression on our clients' - and their clients' – faces when they get the Hotspot activation text on their smartphone in seconds: "It's arrived already?!" You can't put a price on that!" explains Giampaolo Mancini, Founder & CEO Trampoline.
