Account and security

Protect your registration email and two-factor authentication.

Registration email

Verify ownership of your registration email and protect access to it. Contact support if you lose access to the registered email address.

  1. Register with an email address you control and open the verification link sent to it.
  2. Protect access to the registration mailbox and its credentials.
  3. If you lose access to that email address, contact OceanMail support.

Two-factor authentication

In the customer portal’s two-factor authentication settings, connect an authenticator app and activate it with the requested code. Store any recovery codes securely in a separate location.

  1. In the customer portal open Two-factor authentication and confirm your password to start setup.
  2. Add an account in your authenticator app and scan the displayed QR code; enter the setup key manually if necessary.
  3. Enter the six-digit code from the newly added account and activate it.
  4. Store the displayed recovery codes securely in a separate place and confirm that you saved them. Each code is single use.

Keep credentials private

Never share passwords, one-time codes, recovery codes or your authenticator QR/secret. Grant each person only the access they need.

  1. Never share the QR code, setup key, password, one-time codes or recovery codes.
  2. To change devices, use the change-authenticator flow and remove the old account only after confirming the new one.
  3. If you cannot use your authenticator at sign-in, use one previously saved unused recovery code.
