Advanced Security Settings in Webflow Enterprise

Setting Up User Permissions

To manage user permissions in Webflow Enterprise, follow these steps:

1. Log into your Webflow account and select the project you want to manage.
2. Go to the Project Settings from the dashboard.
3. Click on the Members tab to view the list of team members.
4. Here, you can add or edit members. Assign roles such as Admin or Editor according to the required access level.
5. After making changes, click the Save button to apply them.

Implementing SSL Certificates

Secure your website with SSL certificates to encrypt data between your site and its visitors:

1. In Project Settings, navigate to the Hosting tab.
2. Scroll to the SSL section and toggle the option to enable SSL.
3. Webflow automatically configures the SSL for your custom domains after you enable this setting.
4. Wait a few minutes for the SSL certificate to be issued and applied. A secure padlock icon will appear in browsers accessing your site once completed.

Enabling Password Protection

To restrict access to certain pages or your entire site, follow these steps:

1. In the Designer view, access the specific page or project for protection.
2. Click the Settings icon next to the page name in the Pages panel.
3. Scroll to the Password Protection option and toggle the switch to enable it.
4. Enter a strong password and click Save to apply changes.

Configuring Custom Domain Settings

Enhance your site's credibility and security with a custom domain:

1. In Project Settings, go to the Hosting tab.
2. Under Custom Domains, input your custom domain name.
3. Follow Webflow’s instructions to configure DNS settings with your domain registrar.
4. After pointing your domain to Webflow's servers, allow time for DNS changes to propagate.
5. Enable the Redirect all traffic to the primary domain option to prevent duplicate content issues.

Setting Up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Add extra security to your Webflow account with two-factor authentication:

1. Go to your account settings via your profile icon in the top right corner.
2. Select Account Settings from the dropdown menu.
3. Under Security, find the Two-Factor Authentication option.
4. Enable 2FA using an authentication app on your smartphone for security codes.
5. Save your backup codes securely in case you lose access to your authentication method.

Auditing and Monitoring Activity

Regular monitoring helps detect unauthorized access or security breaches:

1. In Project Settings, access the Members tab to track team member activity.
2. Check for any suspicious access or changes made by users.
3. Consider integrating third-party monitoring tools to enhance your website's security tracking.

Conclusion

By setting up user permissions, implementing SSL, enabling password protection, configuring custom domains, and setting up two-factor authentication, along with regular auditing, you ensure your Webflow Enterprise site remains secure. These practices protect your data and build user trust, demonstrating your commitment to security.
