Browser Extension Issues:

After successfully validating your BioSig-ID profile you encounter an issue where all BioSig-ID text options are displayed simultaneously.

If you click Next, "Forbidden" is preventing you from access.

The most frequent cause for this issue is malware or a bad browser extension.
