Securing your CMS accounts
Found in News
Later this month two-factor authentication (2FA) will be turned on across the websites run by the Digital.govt.nz team: Digital.govt.nz, Data.govt.nz and Govt.nz. We’ve decided to require 2FA following CERT NZ guidance on making sure accounts are secure.

Why we took down our API
Found in Blog / Published 11 December 2014 / By Aimee Whitcroft
Over the last month or so, the Govt.nz team have begun to engage more seriously with the API community. We’ve written blog posts, and talked at Open Data Day.

We’ve been very happy with the response. :) It’s been great to see the community step forward and offer its huge knowledge and experience.
There’s been some comment in the la… -
