BANGKOK -- Mula-X today announced the rollout of Passkeys+ from Ideem, potentially replacing SMS-based OTPs with biometric, device-bound authentication across its digital wallet platform. With this move Mula-X has positioned themselves as an industry leader by delivering a significantly improved user experience while also automatically strengthening security for its users. Built on the FIDO standard, Passkeys+ delivers passwordless authentication that is phishing-resistant, invisible to the user, and bound to the device, giving Mula-X visibility and control that standard passkey deployments simply don't offer. Authentication happens natively within the app, with no redirects, no OTP delays, and no attack surface for credential theft. "By adopting Passkeys+ technology alongside our existing SMS-based verification, it allows Mula-X to deliver a faster, more seamless login experience while strengthening security for our users," said Lyn Kok, Founder & CEO of Mula-X. "Security and convenience usually don't go together, but with the advent of AI deep faking, improved phishing attacks and more demanding customers they are both paramount in digital finance." A Stronger Bottom Line The operational impact is equally significant. By enabling an alternative to SMS OTP infrastructure, Mula-X potentially removes recurring delivery costs and the operational complexity of managing global OTP providers, replacing variable, usage-based expense with a scalable, fixed-overhead security layer. "The Thai market is sophisticated and fast-moving, and Mula-X's users deserve authentication at the forefront of the industry," said Greg Storm, President of Ideem. "Mula-X has demonstrated that better security and user convenience can be delivered simultaneously. Users will always take the path of least resistance, and by making their security easy and convenient, Mula-X has given their customers an easy, automatic and invisible path to better security. . As digital finance accelerates across Southeast Asia, Mula-X's adoption of Passkeys+ sets a new benchmark for what modern fintech security should look like. /PRNewswire/

LOS ANGELES, April 6, 2026 — Samsung Electronics has announced that its latest flagship device, the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, was used to film a live Street League Skateboarding (SLS) competition for the first time during the SLS DTLA Takeover held on April 4. The move marks a significant step in the evolution of sports broadcasting, with Samsung integrating its mobile camera technology directly into the skateboarding course. Devices were embedded into key features such as rails, ledges and gaps, offering unique, skater-level perspectives that traditional broadcast cameras are unable to capture. Samsung said the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s pro-grade camera system enables high-quality, broadcast-level performance, combining advanced stabilization, intelligent processing and strong low-light capabilities. The footage captured was fed directly into the live production workflow, allowing near-instant replays and enhancing the overall viewing experience. The initiative builds on Samsung’s earlier efforts in sports broadcasting, including its collaboration with Olympic Broadcasting Services during the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026, where Galaxy devices were used to stream segments of the opening ceremony from multiple on-ground angles. “Mobile innovation is opening new possibilities for how sports are captured and experienced,” said Joshua Cho, Executive Vice President at Samsung Electronics. “With Street League Skateboarding, we are bringing cameras directly into the course to deliver entirely new perspectives.” By placing cameras within the action, Samsung aims to highlight the finer details of skateboarding — from speed and mid-air tricks to the precision of landings — offering fans a more immersive and technical view of the sport. According to Brett Clarke, Chief Revenue Officer at Thrill Sports, the parent company of SLS, such collaborations are helping expand the sport’s global reach while preserving its creative identity. The Galaxy S26 Ultra integration will continue throughout the SLS 2026 season, following its initial rollout earlier this year. Samsung said it plans to further explore the use of mobile technology in live broadcasting, particularly in the lead-up to major global sporting events, including Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games. The development signals a broader shift in the industry, where smartphones are increasingly being positioned as viable tools for professional-grade content production, narrowing the gap between mobile devices and traditional broadcast equipment.
