Karambir K
CEO
4.0

Speaker 1: Hi. This is Karambir. I'm CEO of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and we focus mostly on studying the mental health effects of sound. I give Duo Security a 4 out of a 5. We weren't actually using a two-factor security for our website prior to Duo, but I had used Duo elsewhere, so I didn't really have an opportunity to test out any other software. This one was working where I used it before. It had just made sense. Duo Security made sense, so it was a known quantity, very easy to install. They had a plugin for our website that we installed. I find that it's very easy for me to just have this extra layer of security that requires me to retrieve a code through text message on my phone, and then add it into the web browser. That just provides an extra layer of security. It was very easy-peasy, very easy to install, not a lot of difficult instructions or anything like that. It was really easy to onboard with Duo. I had already been using them at my daytime job, so I already had the app. Part of that is getting the app installed, and then, you just need to activate the app. It's been a while that I've been using them. I don't remember all of the steps, but if it had been a really difficult process, I probably would've gone with a different provider. As with anything, in particular, we're working with this on our website, as far as our access to the admin site, so you want to make sure that it is supported by your ISP and hosting provider. We're using WordPress, so it integrates with WordPress. You want to make sure it integrates with whatever cPanel or any other products you're using to administer your website.
