Protecting Your Digital Identity with pasby

At the heart of pasby is our secure single sign-on (SSO) service, which allows users to access multiple services—such as banking, telecoms, and government portals—without repeatedly providing their personal information. Instead of relying on passwords, which can be vulnerable to hacking and phishing attempts, pasby uses strong authentication methods to protect user identities.

When a user initiates a login or transaction, they receive a notification in their pasby app. This notification requires explicit user consent and is confirmed with a secret personal code. By ensuring that no action can be completed without the user’s direct approval, pasby significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access.

Key Cyber Safety Features of pasby:

  • Multi-factor authentication (MFA): pasby adds an extra layer of security by requiring multiple verification steps, such as using the app to approve logins, in addition to a password or personal code.
  • Local data storage: Your sensitive information stays securely on your device, ensuring that pasby does not store or process any of your data in centralized locations that could be susceptible to attacks.
  • Encryption protocols: Every interaction is encrypted, meaning that even if a hacker intercepts the data, it remains unreadable.

Privacy First: You Control Your Data

At pasby, we believe that privacy is a fundamental right. With growing concerns over how companies use personal data for marketing or other commercial purposes, pasby gives users full control over their information.

pasby ensures complete transparency about how and when your data is shared. More importantly, we never use or sell your login and transaction details for commercial purposes. Your data stays yours—period. Before any action involving your data is taken, pasby requires your explicit consent, ensuring that nothing happens without your approval.

Why Privacy Matters:

  • Transparency: We make it clear to users what data is being used, who has access to it, and for what purpose.
  • User Control: You are always in control of your personal information, with the power to approve or reject data-sharing requests.
  • Protection from exploitation: pasby ensures your information is never used for profit or shared with third-party advertisers.

Whether it’s banks, insurance companies, telecom providers, or online gaming platforms, Pasby offers strong authentication services that businesses can integrate to secure customer data.

One of the biggest challenges for businesses in Africa is preventing cyber fraud, especially as more transactions and services shift online. pasby addresses this issue by offering businesses the ability to verify customer identities in a secure, seamless way—without compromising user experience.

How pasby Helps Businesses:

  • No hidden fees: Companies can implement pasby without worrying about extra costs associated with third-party verification.

Real-World Use Cases: pasby in Action

Across various industries, Pasby is already helping businesses and users stay safe online. Here are a few examples of how pasby’s cyber safety features are being put into practice:

Banking and Finance: With pasby, banks can offer passwordless logins, which drastically reduce the likelihood of account takeover attacks. By eliminating the need for passwords, which can be weak or reused across sites, pasby enables customers to access their accounts securely with their Pasby app and personal code.

E-Governance: Governments in Africa are using pasby to ensure secure, citizen-centric access to public services. Instead of multiple logins for different services, citizens can now log in once using pasby and gain access to everything from tax portals to voter registration sites.

Telecoms: Telecom providers use pasby to verify the identity of customers signing up for new services, ensuring that all personal data is securely handled and reducing the risk of fraud.

Online Gaming: In an industry where rapid onboarding is essential, pasby provides swift, secure sign-ins while keeping gaming platforms free from fraudulent users and bots. This ensures a safer environment for players while maintaining compliance with local regulations.
