- Description
- In recent years Steam has become a giant in the gaming industry. The Valve-owned digital distribution platform held an estimated 75% of market share in 2013, and continues to grow. However, with such a large user base comes the ever-increasing threat of security breaches in both the Steam database and individual Steam user accounts. While Steam does make use of a mobile authentication app, users are still susceptible to malware and/or phishing attempts that can cause users to lose access to their accounts through manipulation or gaining access to recovery email accounts. This project aims to investigate how the authentication process can be improved or if a solution can be created to help prevent the worst-case scenario when users become victims of phishing attacks.
