Boost Your Security with Two-factor Authentication on SeeMeHired
At SeeMeHired, we understand the importance of keeping your data secure. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce a huge update in our latest software releases: Two-factor authentication (2FA) is now available!
Cybersecurity threats are on the rise, and protecting sensitive data has never been more crucial. With 2FA, we’re taking your account security to the next level.
What is Two-Factor Authentication?
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a security feature that requires users to provide two forms of identification to access their accounts. Typically, this includes something you know (like your password) and something you have (like a code sent to your phone). By requiring this second layer of verification, 2FA significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, even if your password is compromised.
Why Enable 2FA on SeeMeHired?
Enabling 2FA provides an extra layer of defence against potential security breaches. It protects your sensitive information, such as candidate data, organisation records, and recruitment analytics, from unauthorized access.
With 2FA, even if someone manages to guess or steal your password, they won’t be able to access your account without the additional verification step. This feature is particularly important for recruiters and HR teams, where privacy and confidentiality are essential!
How Does 2FA Work?
When you log in to your SeeMeHired account after enabling 2FA, you’ll follow these steps:
- Enter your username and password as usual.
- Provide the additional verification code sent to your registered mobile device or email.
This simple yet effective process ensures that only you can access your account.
For Candidates: Enhanced Personal Security
As an individual candidate user, you can enable 2FA for your account to protect your login credentials and sensitive data. Setting it up is quick and easy, and it provides a powerful barrier against unauthorized access.
For HR and hiring Admins: Organisation-Wide Enforcement
For organisations, security is a shared responsibility. Administrators now have the power to enforce 2FA across the entire organisation. This ensures that every user, from team members to hiring managers, complies with security best practices. By enforcing 2FA, organisations can significantly reduce the risk of data breaches and strengthen their overall security posture.
Benefits of 2FA on SeeMeHired
