    Why you should use 2FA for Matomo Cloud?

    Matomo Cloud is a powerful analytics platform that helps businesses track their website traffic and user behavior. However, with great power comes great responsibility, and it's important to ensure that your data is secure. That's where 2-factor authentication comes in.
     
    
     Enabling 2FA on Matomo Cloud adds an extra layer of security to your account. This means that even if someone manages to guess your password, they won't be able to access your account without also having access to your phone or other 2FA device. This greatly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and data breaches.
     
    
     In addition to enabling 2FA, there are other steps you can take to ensure the security and privacy of your Matomo Cloud account. Make sure to use a strong, unique password and avoid using the same password for multiple accounts. Keep your software and plugins up to date to avoid vulnerabilities. And always be cautious when clicking on links or downloading attachments from unknown sources.
     
    
     By taking these steps, you can rest assured that your data is safe and secure on Matomo Cloud. And with the added protection of 2-factor authentication, you can enjoy the benefits of this powerful analytics platform with peace of mind.
