Overview
Zoho Connect is a powerful tool for collaboration and communication. To protect your account and organizational data, we’ve integrated advanced security features. This guide also provides key tips to help you take an active role in maintaining the security.
1. Use strong passwords
Set a unique password for your account using a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters.
Avoid using easily guessed details like your name or date of birth.
Change your password periodically for better protection.
2. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and MFA
Enable 2FA in your account settings to strengthen the security layer.
Use an authentication app such as OneAuth to verify your identity.
Employ Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for an additional layer of security.
3. Manage user permissions
Assign roles and permissions carefully based on the user's responsibilities.
Regularly review and update permissions for everyone to ensure access aligns with their current role.
Always confirm your action during crucial activities like deletion.
4. Monitor login activity
Check the login activity log to ensure there has been no unauthorized access.
Do not connect to the unsecure internet to maintain safety.
If you notice suspicious activity, change your password immediately and report the issue to your admin.
5. Use updated software
Always use the latest version of Zoho Connect for both web and mobile.
Updates often include security enhancements that protect against vulnerabilities.
Download the Zoho Connect app only via authenticated sources.
6. Backup your data
Use Zoho’s data export features to keep a secure copy offline.
Also, you can make a secure export by setting a password to the downloaded data, preventing unauthorized access.
By following these practices, you can help ensure a secure and productive environment in Zoho Connect.
