Octet – Geofactor Authentication.
Proof of where a real device is.
Octet makes location a factor in authentication, the way two-factor authentication uses a code. The Octet SDK works out on the phone itself whether the device is inside a defined area – from a whole country down to a single building – using satellite signals, the mobile network and motion sensors. It never relies on IP addresses or reported GPS, so VPNs and location spoofing don't change the result.
Signed in hardware, verified offline.
Each yes/no answer is signed by the phone's secure hardware and can be used only once. Only the answer leaves the device – never the user's coordinates.
Applying age rules in the right place.
Age verification laws increasingly differ between countries and US states. Octet lets platforms apply the right rules based on where users actually are – for example, a state's adult-content law only in that state. Octet works on websites, in iOS and Android apps, and at sign-in.
