EA Reset my Origin Account Password

EA has reset my Origin account password earlier this morning. The main reason that was cited for this action was to prevent any hacking attempts. This is quite a concern as it means there are many hackers out there waiting for a back door to enter EA servers which have millions of user names and credit card on its server. You just need to go to http://help.ea.com and click on the forget password at the bottom of the login page. It will allow you to reset your password.

Origin Account Password Reset

My advice to all Origin gamers out is to use a strong password and 2 factor verification. A strong password means it must have a small letter, capital letter and number. If you add special character like @, -, _, ^, % & !, this will made the password even stronger. You need to add a mobile number for 2 factor verification. Every time, your account is access from a new computer, it will send a verification code via sms to your mobile phone.  This will ensure a fool proof of your account security.

2 Factor Authentication

It is critical to have 2 factor authentication on your critical accounts online. You may have a strong password but the hackers can still gain access to your account if they managed to hack the servers. They will gain access to the user name and password.

My EA account was hack recently and they gain access to my account without myself realizing it. EA also have a weak protocol to identify the account holder. It was when I read my email that I realize someone was using my account to talk to EA customer service.

I regain control of my account from EA and apply the 2 factor authentication straight away. Every time, you sign in with your user name and password, a sms code will be send to your mobile phone. The account can only be access when this code is enter. This is really a fool proof method as far as till today.

Many website now support 2 factor authentication through mobile phone or hardware token. All banks in Singapore are now using 2 factor authentication. The only person who can break this fool proof plan is your closet family member or friends.
