"Google has acquired another tech startup, this time Israel-based SlickLogin who specialise in passwords that use sound. The company announced the news on its website earlier today (February 16), although Google&amp;#039;s exact plans for the technology are unknown.  &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re announcing that the SlickLogin team is joining Google, a company that shares our core beliefs that logging in should be easy instead of frustrating, and authentication should be effective without getting in the way,&amp;quot; CEO Or Zelig, CTO Eran Galili, and VP of research Ori Kabeli said. &amp;quot;Google was the first company to offer 2-step verification to everyone, for free - and they&amp;#039;re working on some great ideas that will make the internet safer for everyone. We couldn&amp;#039;t be more excited to join their efforts.&amp;quot; SlickLogin has developed a unique method for login authentication, using an inaudible sound generated from a website, which can then be read by an app to authorise the user. According to Israeli newspaper Haaretz, the startup has three team members, who have a history in the Israel Defense Forces. SlickLogin also has no known customers.
