How can you ensure your IT Glue data is safe?

Implementing two-factor authentication significantly enhances the security of your IT Glue data by adding an extra layer of protection beyond just a password. Two-factor authentication requires users to verify their identity through a second method, such as a temporary code sent to their mobile device or generated by an authentication app. This means that even if an unauthorized individual gains access to a user's password, they would still need the second piece of information to access the account, thereby substantially reducing the likelihood of unauthorized access.

In contrast, avoiding internet connections or not using the platform for sensitive data would not effectively mitigate risks associated with unauthorized access or data breaches, as data may still be exposed in other ways. Storing data solely on a local computer can lead to vulnerabilities if that device is compromised, lost, or damaged, as it removes the benefits of cloud-based security measures designed to protect against such incidents.
