# Date and Time tab

Nodegrid devices supports NTP (Network Time Protocol) Authentication and Cellular Tower Synchronization. This default configuration automatically retrieves accurate date/time from any server in the NTP pool. NTP authentication provides an extra safety measure for Nodegrid to ensure that the timestamp it receives has been generated by a trusted source, protecting it from malicious activity or interception.
