Passwords provide the first line of defense against unauthorized access to your computer and personal information.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once a password protects the data, only the person with the passwords will access the information or accounts.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another user cannot read, change, or delete your data set without knowing the password.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The three different levels used in the 3-level password authentication scheme are image ordering, color pixels and the one-time password (OTP).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some ways in which you can make the most out of your password protection include:\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

 1. Don\u2019t share your password or relevant usernames with anyone. If anyone may need access to your data, be present and allow them access.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Don\u2019t use one password for all your various data accounts, be creative and have different passwords. Also, sharpen your memory and remember all of them.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. A stronger password is not only one that contains numbers, letters, and symbols. Make your password even stronger<\/a> by creating a passphrase unique and crazy enough for you.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Strengthen your password using multi-factor authentication, which will require your permission from another device to grant access.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

GenInvo<\/a> has an MFA system for all applications; GenInvo protects your company\u2019s data and makes management easier.\u00a0 The system requires a person to provide a username and password and afterward allow access from the MFA app on your android or iOS phone.\u00a0 The second authentication process uses the one-time password method to grant access.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why You Need Password Protection<\/strong>:  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Without a password, all your information will be open and available to anyone who tries to access it.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a business setting, this leaves critical data such as personal or client information exposed.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Passwords are the first secure entry point to your information; therefore, anyone without it can easily experience a breach in their security system.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits of Using Password Protection for Your Business\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Passwords can be very beneficial for your company when implemented in the best ways.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some benefits of password protection for your business:  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With password protection and MFA, you allow instant, user-friendly and secure access to accounts or data.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of risking valuable business information, coming up with passwords keeps everyone\u2019s work well protected beyond the administrators.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The use of passwords and MFA have also reduced the possibility of hacking and brute force attacks on companies\u2019 data.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Top 5 tips for good password security!\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Make your password long   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Include numbers, symbols, uppercase, and lowercase letters   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Avoid using obvious personal information   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Do NOT reuse passwords   <\/p>\n\n\n\n
