In a business environment, Your business data is one of your most valuable elements, and ensuring its security should be a priority and compulsory matter. However, in the open-source version of Vtiger CRM, the lack of two-factor authentication (2FA) lead your system to potential risks. If someone gets access to your login credentials, they could easily track your CRM, causing data breaches, manipulation and damage to your business reputation.
Without 2FA, unauthorized individuals get full access to your CRM through the breaching of a simple password. They can destroy client information, financial records, and business strategies. You know this is a high risk factor for every business and essential to add an additional layer of security. This challenge can be fixed by setting up Two Factor Authentication in Vtiger CRM.
Two Factor Authentication (2FA) is a most effective security, that enhances data security by requiring both a password and a verification code for Vtiger CRM access. After the enabling of 2 FA, even if someone knows your username and password, they cannot log in without entering a passcode that sent to their email. This additional layer of protection surely reduces the risk of unauthorized access.
