Submission declined on 10 May 2025 by Caleb Stanford (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies. If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window. If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted. If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors. Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.

• Comment: This is an advertisement for a particular product standard, not an encyclopedic article that covers information about the project as covered in reliable, independent sources. Caleb Stanford (talk) 20:02, 10 May 2025 (UTC)

X.1280 is an International Telecommunication Union(ITU) standard for verifying a service provider before user information.^[1]

The title of x.1280 is out-of-band server authentication. This standard contains out-of-band authentication and mutual authentication. The out-of-band authentication makes it difficult for attackers to intercept because the attackers need to hijack two channels at the same time. ^[2] Mutual authentication can increase the security level compared to one-way authentication. One-way authentication only verifies the user's identity, but mutual authentication verifies the user and the service providers. In this way, mutual authentication can help stop some kinds of attacks. ^[3]

• On-path attacks
• Spoofing and impersonation
• Credential theft

X.1280 uses an out-of-band mobile authenticator, typically a smartphone, and may incorporate biometric authentication for applying MFA(Multi-factor authentication). However, a key feature is that no additional hardware, such as dedicated security tokens, is required beyond a smartphone. It allows the use of a unified authenticator across various devices. To authenticate via X.1280, prior registration is required. When a service provider supports X.1280-based authentication, the mobile authenticator must first be registered and then used for authentication.
