We are excited to introduce Version 4.0 of Cibecs Endpoint Cloud, featuring three major enhancements: Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for Administrators, Secure Remote Restore, and Improved Device Activity Visibility. These updates strengthen security controls, improve administrative capabilities, and enhance visibility into operations.

Features

• Secure Remote Restore

The Secure Remote Restore feature introduces the ability to securely restore data for users who have left the organization or for investigative purposes. This ensures that data recovery is managed in a controlled and auditable manner.

Key Benefits:

• • Enables secure recovery of user data even after users have departed from the organization.
  • Supports investigative use cases by allowing administrators to restore data while maintaining security controls.
  • Requires 2FA authentication to ensure only authorized personnel can perform restores.

• Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for Administrators

With the release of Cibecs Endpoint Cloud 4.0, Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) will now be required for performing sensitive administrative tasks. This added security layer ensures that critical operations are protected against unauthorized access, reducing the risk of security breaches.

Key Details:

• • 2FA Enforcement: Certain high-impact administrator actions will now require authentication via 2FA.
  • Action Required: Administrators will need to set up 2FA when prompted. Setup instructions and best practices will be provided.
  • Enhanced Security: This update aligns with our commitment to maintaining a secure environment for endpoint data management.
