If IP Address Restrictions Does Not Meet Your Need

In the following cases, it is hard to block unauthorized access from third parties with IP address restrictions.

  • When you use Kintone on your smartphone, or your source IP address changes dynamically (due to remote work, for example).
  • When you access from the IP address shared by many other anonymous users (shared office or public wireless LAN, for example).

Consider using the two-factor authentication.
