About ECI Authenticator APK
Table Of Contents
Description
1. As per the Cyber Security Regulations of the ECI, all critical user actions and secure logins are carried out through two-factor authentication (2FA) wherein a user apart from his/ her password, is also required to enter a ‘One Time Password’ received on his/ her mapped mobile/ email. Presently, the OTP system is used extensively across different applications of ECI. For sending automated system generated OTP by various applications, an SMS Gateway service has been procured by ECI.2. However, OTP based 2FA scheme causes user inconvenience and wastage of time due to poor network coverage resulting in a substantial delay in receipt of OTP. Consequently, development of a dedicated Android based ‘ECI Authenticator Application’ was conceptualized. This sole objective and aim of the App is to:-
(a) Implement 2-Factor Authentication without resorting to sending OTP through SMS.
(b) The OTP shall not be dependent on mobile network conditions.
(c) Retain security and sanctity of the OTP. The OTP shall not be sent to an email ID.
3. In addition to the android based Authenticator App, ECI has also developed an API for enabling existing web and mobile applications to employ 2FA using ECI Authenticator with minor changes to their existing OTP based 2FA. For offline authentication to work, the Mobile number used for activating ‘ECI Authenticator App’ and mobile number available in the web application database has to be same. The existing business and application flow will remain same, except that the authentication page of the application now need to allow entry of ‘Unique Transaction Identifier (UTI)’ by the user in place of CAPTCHA and entry of ‘One-time Secure Code (OSC)’ in place of OTP.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
