In our increasingly digital world, SchoolInsight provides additional security tools using our two-factor authentication system. This helps to ensure your district’s account security and data protection.
Our two-factor authentication system is designed to aid all types of schools, no matter your email provider. These tools work with any authenticator app, so even if you do not use Google, they can provide an extra layer of security when enabled.
For those who use Google, the tools are built to be a natural extension of your current set up. For example, if districts are not using two-factor authentication in Google and want to enforce more security when accessing school data, they can enable two-factor authentication for users. For those currently requiring two-factor authentication on Google, the system has options you can enable to ensure that your employees are not being asked to authenticate multiple times.
The articles below allow for a self-guided learning experience on how admins can set up and manage two-factor authentication. For any district planning on adopting two-factor authentication, we recommend starting out with a small group of initial users. You can enable two-factor authentication for these individuals, allowing them to get accustomed to the new workflow. Once acclimated, these users will be a great asset in training the rest of your staff when you mandate two-factor authentication.
