Abstract

This study presents the implementation and evaluation of an SMS-based access validation mechanism in a web-based credit sales management system for commercial microenterprises. The main objective was to strengthen security in the authentication processes, ensuring that only legitimate users can access their accounts. The methodology employed was a pre-experimental approach, using a pre-test and post-test design with a single group. The system was developed using a client-server architecture with Spring Boot, Angular, and MySQL technologies, integrating an SMS verification code delivery service (OTP). The results showed a 100% successful validation rate for legitimate access and a 100% effective blocking of impersonation attempts; with an average validation time of 4.8 seconds. These findings confirm that SMS-based authentication constitutes a practical, secure, and low-cost solution for microenterprises, strengthening cybersecurity and user confidence in digital credit management.
