"As a student, I use OYCO a lot. Just the fact that my cell phone number doubles as my email helps people reach me easily, and I don't have to give out separate bits of information every time. I never even bother using my cell phone to call home any more - I just login to OYCO and use VoIP for just 2.9 cents a minute."

How is your service different?

  1. It’s very easy to use, with friendly labels, icons, and buttons for anyone to just jump in and get started with right away. Users don’t need to worry about learning multiple applications for everything they want to do. They just log into one simple web application in order to communicate in multiple ways.

How can I be assured that my information is secure?

Every on-line service claims the best security, but OYCO is unique in that it authenticates who you are based on your keystroke patterns or typing style. Simply type your password to access your OYCO account; the “Biopassword” system records your keypad rhythm from your very first login and uses subsequent logins to detect your rhythm, which is then used to authenticate your login. This means there’s no need to worry about passwords being stolen and used by identity thieves or hackers since the unique Biopassword system utilizes your typing rhythm to recognize who you are rather than just your password itself.
