Help with Password Policy
At Elergix.com, we understand that your account security is important, and we want to make sure that you can easily recover or reset your password if necessary. Below is our comprehensive Help with Password Policy to guide you through the steps for managing your account access securely and efficiently.
1. Password Recovery
If you’ve forgotten your password or are unable to log in to your Elergix.com account, you can recover or reset your password by following these steps:
How to Reset Your Password:
- Go to the Login Page on Elergix.com.
- Click the Forgot Password link.
- Enter the email address associated with your Elergix account.
- Check your email inbox (and spam/junk folder) for a Password Reset Email.
- Click the link in the email to be redirected to the Reset Password page.
- Enter a new, secure password and confirm it.
- Click Submit to complete the password reset process.
You will now be able to log in to your Elergix account using your new password.
2. Creating a Strong Password
To ensure your account is secure, follow these best practices when creating your password:
- Minimum Length: Your password must be at least 8 characters long.
- Mix of Characters: Use a combination of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters (e.g., !, @, #, $) to create a stronger password.
- Avoid Common Passwords: Avoid using easily guessable information such as your name, birthdate, or common phrases.
- Unique Password: Use a unique password that you do not use for any other accounts.
A strong password helps protect your Elergix account from unauthorized access.
3. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
For added security, Elergix encourages users to enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) on their accounts. This extra layer of protection requires you to verify your identity with a second method (such as a mobile device) when logging in. Here’s how to set it up:
How to Enable Two-Factor Authentication:
- Log in to your Elergix account.
- Go to Account Settings.
- Navigate to Security Settings.
- Under Two-Factor Authentication, follow the prompts to set up 2FA using your mobile number or an authentication app (e.g., Google Authenticator or Authy).
- Once enabled, you will receive a one-time verification code on your mobile device or through the authentication app each time you log in.
This ensures that even if someone has your password, they won’t be able to access your account without your second authentication factor.
4. Changing Your Password
If you want to change your password for any reason, such as for improved security or due to a suspected security breach, you can do so in your Account Settings.
How to Change Your Password:
- Log in to your Elergix account.
- Go to Account Settings.
- Navigate to Security Settings.
- Select Change Password.
- Enter your current password and your new password.
- Confirm the new password and click Submit to update it.
Remember to create a strong password, as described above, to keep your account safe.
5. Locking Your Account
If you believe your account has been compromised or if you notice suspicious activity on your account, you can temporarily lock it to prevent unauthorized access.
How to Lock Your Account:
- Log in to your Elergix account.
- Go to Account Settings.
- Navigate to Security Settings.
- Click on Lock Account.
- You will be asked to confirm the action by entering your password.
Once your account is locked, you will not be able to access it until you unlock it with your password or request help from Elergix support.
