Avoiding Personal Data Disclosure Win10 has new tricks to provide users with two-factor authentication service

  

Microsoft mentioned in its security profile that the Windows 10 operating system will provide users with protection services similar to two-factor authentication. The new system can choose to use other devices (such as mobile phones) for second-level authentication (such as using a PIN or biometric) to log in to the local or online account. This way, even if the hacker finds your login information in the server, they are useless unless they simultaneously obtain the device used for authentication or mimic the user's fingerprint. Although many Internet services offer dual authentication services to reduce the risk of account intrusion and data leakage, it seems relatively rare to have a “cooperation” between PC and mobile phone.

Microsoft does not use this mechanism alone to protect your digital products. This new platform will store the user's access token in a secure "container" container, even if it is hacked into the Windows kernel code, the container will not be compromised. It can also store home and work data separately (like Android for Work or BlackBerry Balance), allowing users to use the VPN (virtual private network) to achieve more careful operation, and also allows the company to prevent staff from installing any non- Digitally certified app.

While the above protections do not allow users to rest assured that all personal data is placed on the computer, they can still reduce the chance of serious data leakage.
