Hello,

We are pleased to announce that Radiator now supports TOTP, a new open 
specification time-based one-time-password protocol, recently developed by 
OATH (Initiative for Open AuTHentication, http://www.openauthentication.org)

TOTP is a time-based authentication protocol, and is designed for use in 
time-based 2 factor tokens and other similar authentication processes. It 
uses the well-known SHA-1 hash function, along with a secret key and a 
timestamp. The specification is completely open and free and is the result of 
community collaboration with OATH.

Radiator's new TOTP authentication module supports optional PIN/static 
password, brute force attack detection and many other configurable features.

Radiator's TOTP joins the OATH HOTP (event-based one-time-password) support 
that already ships with Radiator, and reinforces OSC's support for open 
specification authentication protocols.
