Setting IP security up will reduce the risk of being hacked and also means that locked IPs due to incorrect password safety feature will be minimised - see below

There are 3 possible sections to use

Blocked IPs - If you see that there are suspicious IPs trying to access your account you can add to the blocked IP section.

Whitelisted - Here you should include main offices or remote employees with known fixed IPs this removes the possiblity of failed login security built into Alldevice activating. If the IP address isn't Whitelisted then after 10 wrong password attempts in a day the account will Lock. Everyone trying to access from the locked IP will see 403 error and an admin will need to remove the lock- read here

Allowed IPs will restrict access to only IPs added.

Updating Alldevice

For those with Update privileges you will see the option to update Alldevice, this is typically once per month, were we add new features, bug fixes and security updates. You will see the update in Green as per below.

You can read the details of upgrades from the Changelog in the bottom right
