WinAuth

In the event that you are logging in your favorite games or services from other locations than your home, then you are probably aware that you can become a victim of account theft. Sometimes, your account can be stolen even when you access services from your personal computer, especially when you have no a reliable antivirus to protect your data.

WinAuth is a small, but powerful application that enables you to overcome account theft by generating a unique code that you can enter before logging in with your standard username and password.

Since this is a portable application, the setup consists of unpacking the archive without any additional configuration. The portability is a feature that is surely useful for an app in this category, as it permits you to carry and access it regardless of your location.

The program comes with a clean and sleek interface that you can minimize or enlarge, according to the number of accounts you want to associate with it. It is necessary to mention that the app displays the serial code only for a couple of seconds and then masks it, a function that can further safeguard your accounts from prying eyes.

You should know that WinAuth works with most popular gaming services, including Steam and Google, for instance. On a side note, it would be nice if the application allowed you to add further gaming or other accounts you commonly use.

The app enables you to add the authenticator that you are currently using for your favorite MMORPG games. Lastly, you can add serial codes directly by importing TXT, XML, PGP or ZIP files.

If you want to make sure all your sensitive account information is safe, then you can export the data to a text file with an authenticator per line in KeyUriFormat.

Although it does not support a wide number of gaming or other services, WinAuth does a good job at providing that extra layer of protection that can discourage anyone who may want to steal your account.
