Safeguard financial transactions with colleagues, friends, and family
Before sending bank transfers or sending money through apps like Venmo or PayPal based on an e-mail, text request, or phone call, use ShakeMyHand to confirm it's truly your colleague or friend asking.
Verify messages from family members
When you receive unusual requests or messages from family members, especially in urgent situations, ShakeMyHand can confirm their authenticity.
Team data security
Need to swap login details or API keys in your team? With ShakeMyHand's easy passphrases, team members can make sure they're sharing sensitive info with the right people, keeping everything tight and secure, especially in remote setups.
Grant roles and permissions securely
When a team member needs new roles or privileges in a tool or system, ShakeMyHand steps in. Just swap a quick passphrase to confirm it's them asking, and you're all set to update access safely.
Confirm the identity of remote team members
Before sharing sensitive project details in a virtual team meeting, use ShakeMyHand to ensure you're communicating with the actual team.
Time-based pass phrases
Just like an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator and Authy, ShakeMyHand generates regularly changing passwords. However, instead of interfacing with some SaaS app or website, it pairs with another human being, using easy, human-friendly words instead of numbers.
Cryptography
Under the hood, we've got some heavy-duty lock-and-key stuff going on that keeps your handshakes safe. Think of it as an uncrackable code that only you and the person you're chatting with can understand.
Unique to you
When you pair up with someone, your apps create a secret recipe that's just for the two of you. It's like having a secret handshake that nobody else knows. This makes sure that the person you're talking to is actually who they say they are.
No middle man
All this security happens right on your phone. There's no middle man, no big server somewhere holding onto your secrets. Same goes for the person you paired with. Technically, you both could disconnect from the internet forever and the shared pass phrase would still be in-sync.
