The profile & security screen is where users can manage their user profile settings, such as the name associated with the KloudMate account, password, and more. KloudMate also supports Multi-factor authentication (MFA) activation for KloudMate accounts, allowing users to add an extra layer of security in addition to their login email-id and password.
