Kia ora , As part of our commitment to keeping your data and services safe, we want to remind you that KiwiData enforced Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) across all client accounts last year.

While some clients initially found this inconvenient, it was a necessary and proactive move. With the increasing volume of cyber threats—and now over 16 billion passwords leaked from platforms like Apple, Facebook, and Google—this step has proven critical.

???? Why We Enforced 2FA

Allowing unprotected access to your domains, DNS settings, and email services created a major security risk—not just to your business, but to others connected to your systems.

A single compromised login could mean:

• Your website goes offline

• Emails are hijacked or blacklisted

• Your domain is stolen or redirected

We didn’t wait for a breach. We acted early—before it became a disaster.

✅ Two-Factor Authentication = Essential Protection

2FA adds a critical layer of security by requiring a second step to verify your identity during login. Even if your password is compromised, this step stops most attackers in their tracks.

We’ve seen it prevent numerous breach attempts—and it works.

???? New: Secure Third-Party Access System

We’ve also introduced a better way to work with developers, IT providers, and digital agencies—without sharing your own login.

Our new Third-Party Access System allows you to:

• Protect your master account and billing

• Control exactly what each user can access

• Keep digital vendors accountable

• Log, track, and manage permissions easily

Granting Third-Party Access to Your KiwiData Services

Most web hosts still leave their clients exposed. We don’t.
Your data security isn’t optional—it’s our responsibility.
