TrustBuilder MFA and Google Authenticator, 2 visions of multifactor authentication

TrustBuilder
Founded in 2008, TrustBuilder (previously inWebo) is the specialist in multi-factor strong authentication (MFA). The company offers a complete SaaS platform for strong authentication management. It combines two key elements: maximum security and a smooth user experience.

Google Authenticator
Google Authenticator is a free security app on mobile developed by Google that can protect accounts against password theft. It can be used in a process called two-factor authentication (2FA) offered on popular services like Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and more.
Comparison of TrustBuilder vs Google Authenticator
Not all MFA solutions are the same when it comes to security
The TrustBuilder MFA solution relies on patented random dynamic keys on the user side and HSMs (Hardware Security Modules) on the server side to protect user identities.
Google Authenticator uses only the possession factor to generate an OTP and you need to use a classical password seen as a "second factor".
