Security is a top priority on Portfoliobox, and certain actions in your portfolio website Dashboard require authentication. You can authenticate these actions using your password or a temporary Verification Code (also called a One-Time Password or OTP) sent to your email.
In this article, we'll explain when and how to use these authentication methods for specific actions within the Dashboard.
Actions Requiring Authentication
- Change Email Address
- Change or Remove Password
- Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
- Deleting a Website
- Deleting Your Account
How Verification Code Works
- Verification Codes are temporary and unique codes generated for a single-use purpose.
- These codes are sent to your registered email address.
- You'll receive the Verification Code and enter it in the designated field during the authentication process.
- For security reasons, the Verification Code expires after a short period, so be sure to use it as soon as possible.
Security and Best Practices
- Keep your password and Verification Codes confidential. Please do not share them with anyone.
- Use strong, unique passwords and consider using a password manager to keep them secure.
