The solution will also offer advanced protection to stop the latest fraud schemes such as man-in-the-middle and man-in-the-browser attacks.
The platform features the one-time password (OTP) function that can be used for both authentication at account sign-in and for an electronic signature, such as bank account transfers and payment settlement services.
Shunji Mori, project manager at Mizuho Bank, said: "Since DIGIPASS solutions have been adopted by many domestic banks as well as global banks, DIGIPASS is now considered as the industry-wide standard. We will make efforts to help our customers understand its importance and encourage them to use DIGIPASS for their everyday banking services."
