Are you implementing your two-factor authentication policy?
Two-factor authentication (2FA), sometimes referred to as two-step verification or dual-factor authentication, is a security process in which users provide two different authentication factors to verify that they are permitted to access computer data.
With the increase in cybercrime please ensure that you are vigilant in implementing a two-factor authentication policy when accessing your data to ensure you are fully protected.
This policy should apply to your staff as well. While this is a simple process, it is now imperative to ensure your valuable data and the privacy of your clients’ information is secured from potential cybercrimes.
