How to Protect your Veem Account

At Veem, we take security seriously. By making a few simple changes to your devices and accounts, you can maintain security against outside parties’ unwanted attempts to access your data and protect your privacy.

 Here are some steps and recommendations to help you protect your account and make it more secure.

Step 1: Use the Veem tools to secure your account:

  • Two-factor Authentication: 2FA prevents unwanted access to the account, even if the password is compromised.  
  • SSO Login (Google, Intuit): This feature reduces the risk of losing the password and adds additional security layers used with the SSO provider. Keep in mind that this feature will not work with Veem 2FA. 
  • Add multiple users: The number of users who can be added to the Veem account is unlimited. Veem strongly recommends not sharing access for one user but actually adding users with the needed permissions. 
  • Email notifications: Veem sends emails for every transaction on the account to the primary email address and to any user with the permission settings to receive email notifications.

Step 2: Do a security check:

  • On your Login credentials:
      • Create a strong, complex, and unique password.
      • Don’t share your credentials with anyone.
      • Update your password regularly.
      • Step up 2FA.
  • On your account:
      • Remove any unnecessary users from your account.
      • Give the appropriate permissions to users.
      • Make sure to add monitored communication methods to your account.
      • Monitor your email inbox.
      • Please don't open email messages from unknown parties, and never click on links or open attachments that accompany them.
      • Forward any suspicious emails related to Veem to cybersecurity@veem.com.
  • On your device:
    • Always use a secure private network. 
    • Make sure your browser and software are up to date.
    • Remove any app extensions that are from unknown sources or are unused. 
    • Clear your browsing history regularly.
