    Epassporte adds useless security features

    So now epassporte asks me to enter 3 security questions, now sorry but it's completely useless stuff

    If the poor victim has a keylogger installed it will get the keystrokes of the security answers in the same way it gets the username and password...

    I think epass guys only know password stealing by phishing sites and no other ways ... newbies :P

    A simple java screen keyboard would have limited the damage, but that seems just off limits for multi billion company like epass!

    Maybe they are just curios about our grannies names or first time we had sex in life

      VERY true. I'm happy with epass's new security measures; it's definitely a step in the right direction.

          Interstingly enough the vast majority of Epassporte users have NOT been losing their funds. This makes your statement ridiculous.

            if you're worried about having a keylogger open up notepad, type out a paragraph which contains the secret answers along with other crap text, copy the text you want, paste in in the answer box and do that for the other 2 as well. This way IF you do have a keylogger it will not get the exact answer.

            Even better, type out a paragraph of text in notepad with the words of the answer scattered throughout the text and copy/paste... copy/paste etc.. There are easy ways to fuck a keylogger.

            Usually, with IE and Firefox at least, it will keep info you out in those answer boxes. That way you don't have to type it out. Just use the down arrow, select the answer and voila.

            At least there is some safety.

                webmoney.ru or fethard.biz are something they should look at when thinking about security

                    If noone had ever lost a penny in these years they would have not bothered adding security questions, obviously

                          It happened and will happen of course, why do u think some countries had limited access on transfers etc? Just because they are racists?

                              well my original theme was that the security features they just added are pretty useless, of course every system has leaks

                                Undetectable Russian rootkits also take a copy of your clipboard every time it changes so anything you copy/paste is sent too.

                                    It works to stop phising emails without a doubt. If you don't see the correct info on the page then you know the page is fake.

                                    There is very few ways to protect a site if someone has a compromised login from a key logger etc...

                                    It seems like you are expecting miracles from epass that noboby else has solved either.

                                          You only have to enter the security question the first time you log in from a computer so if your computer is clean you have nothing to worry about.
                                          If you log in from a different computer that have a keylogger installed then there is 2/3 risk that it picks up the security question.

                                          Keep you system clean and don't use the same password you use at other sites and you won't have a problem.

                                            hey, at least I don't have a computer infected with a shit load of crap. I've NEVER had any $ stolen from any bank or financial type site. Call me what you want, but I won't resort to childish name calling.

                                            Grow up and post something helpful instead of trying to look "cool" calling people names.

                                              If you're rootkitted, then it's not epasses fault, your bank's fault, or myspaces fault. It's YOUR fault.

                                                some online banks use the same exact security method, i am happy with the new features.
                                                ...

                                                  If the poor victim has a keylogger installed it will get the keystrokes of the security answers in the same way it gets the username and password...

                                                  I think epass guys only know password stealing by phishing sites and no other ways ... newbies :P

                                                  A simple java screen keyboard would have limited the damage, but that seems just off limits for multi billion company like epass!

                                                  Maybe they are just curios about our grannies names or first time we had sex in life

                                                  The same thing goes for pretty much all security online. The biggest security hole anything is the human factor. Don't do retarded things, like running windows. If you're paranoid check for hardware keyloggers. Don't do anything sensitive on any open or non-encrypted wireless networks. In the end it doesn't matter what any site offers as security if the users are retards.

                                                    How is it your fault? No antivirus detect that.

                                                            I'm staggered here, I really am. It's your hardware, it's your software. You're responsible for it. Epass has absolutely no fault if your PC is compromised / fucked up.
