Two factor honeytoken authentication (2FHA)

The thesis proposes an authentication framework combining multi-factor authentication with honeytoken-based deception techniques. It describes three successive architectures: static honeytokens to improve detection of compromised credentials, the 2FHA mechanism combining one-time passwords (Google Authenticator) with honeytokens, and a final architecture with session-bound honeytokens, blockchain-supported auditing, and smart contracts on Ethereum.
