March turned out to be one of those months where a lot of things came together at once. We’ve been heads down building features that give our users greater security & more control over their infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n

Your account now supports two-factor authentication<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n

We added 2FA<\/strong>. You can turn it on right now from your account settings<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A password gets reused, leaked, or phished it happens to careful people too. Once 2FA is on, someone with your password still can’t get in without your phone. That’s the whole point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turning it on<\/strong> takes about two minutes. Go to Settings \u2192 Password, flip the 2FA switch, and a panel slides out. It shows you a QR code and a secret key, scan the code with any authenticator app, or copy the key into something like KeePass if that’s your setup. Enter the 6-digit code to confirm it’s working, and you’re linked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, you’ll see a screen with backup codes. Download one or copy somewhere you won’t lose them. This is the only time you’ll see them, and you’ll need one if you ever lose access to your authenticator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Logging in with 2FA<\/strong> works exactly how you’d expect: email and password first, then a second screen asks for your 6-digit code. If you’ve lost your authenticator, there’s a “use backup code” option right on that screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turning it off<\/strong> is just as straightforward. Same path \u2014 Settings \u2192 Password \u2014 flip the switch back, and a confirmation window asks for your current 2FA code before removing anything. Lost your app? Backup code gets you through here too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re managing nodes for a production environment or on behalf of clients, just turn this on today.<\/p>\n\n\n

You can now order Dedicated Nodes yourself<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n

Up until now, getting a Dedicated Node<\/strong> meant emailing us. It worked, but it wasn’t great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting this month, you can place the order entirely from your dashboard. Pick the network, choose your server location, select the billing period, and you’re done. No emails, no waiting on a reply from our side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few things worth knowing: Dedicated Nodes<\/a> give you isolated resources no sharing compute with other users, no surprises during traffic spikes. If you’ve been running on shared nodes and hitting limits, or if you just need guaranteed performance for something that can’t go down, this is the right move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The self-service flow is live now. Go check it out.<\/p>\n\n\n

Why These Updates Matter<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n

Each feature released this month reflects our commitment to expand users opportunity. 2FA protects what you’ve built. Self-service Dedicated Node ordering removes distracting processes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay tuned for more updates, and in the meantime, log in to your NOWNodes Dashboard<\/a> to explore everything that’s new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
