The 2-Z of 2025 predictions: 2 & 5

2 is for two-factor authentication (2FA)

"Historically, SMS OTPs have been the go-to method for 2FA. Their simplicity and wide adoption have made them a reliable choice, but they come with notable limitations, such as vulnerability to SIM swapping and security concerns around unencrypted messages," noted Chris Connolly, Solutions Engineering Lead for Communications, APJ, Twilio. OTP stands for one-time password.

"In 2025, we can expect a significant shift in how brands approach user authentication, driven by the emergence of new messaging protocols like RCS, Silent Network Authentication (SNA) and Passkeys. SMS OTPs won’t disappear entirely, but will become a mere thread in organisations’ broader, more flexible authentication strategy."

According to Connolly, brands will tailor verification methods to suit different scenarios and user needs instead of going for a one-size-fits-all solution. "RCS, for example, enables secure, encrypted, end-to-end messaging that eliminates the need for a code — users can simply click to approve their identity. While passkeys offer a smoother, frictionless experience, they are rapidly being deployed across all apps, and many developers have yet to fully adopt them," he shared. 

"In these cases, SMS-based OTPs will remain an important fallback option, especially when users switch devices or face compatibility issues."

"SNA is also on the rise as a friction-free authentication mechanism that works by checking if the user's device is both known and connected to the right network in the right place. Unlike other OTP methods, the end-user doesn’t need to interact with the app to enter digits or press buttons," Connolly added.

"In 2025, more brands will adopt a combination of verification methods, considering factors like security requirements, device type, and user location, to create a more adaptive authentication process that balances robust security with a seamless user experience."

5 is for 5G

"According to Research and Markets’ Private LTE & 5G Network Ecosystem Report 2024-2030, the private 5G market, expected to reach US$6 B by 2027, will be driven by manufacturing, logistics, and energy sectors seeking ultra-reliable, low-latency connectivity. Businesses will leverage this technology to enable IoT deployments and centralised control systems," said Yasutaka Mizutani, APAC President, Colt Technology Services. 

IoT is about the Internet of Things.

  2. 2.8 BTC back in my possession after a devastating SIM swap. Bitreclaim made it happen. Their first requirement? Full transaction history and wallet info. If you’ve been hit, send it all to bitreclaims@protonmail.com. Time is of the essence in crypto thefts.

  3. As a new business owner, I thought I had everything figured out. But a scam nearly destroyed everything I had worked for. The weight of the loss was unbearable. Then I found INNOVATIONS ANALYST, and they gave me the strength to keep going. Their experts helped me recover much of the money I lost, and their emotional support was just as crucial. I can’t imagine what would have happened without them. If you're in a similar situation, contact s u p p o r t @ Innovationsanalyst . c o m via mail. They will ensure you get out of that situation in one piece.
