Secure Login Set-up

If you are a Professional Plan user or an Enterprise user, the following sections will be useful in setting up your account.

Set/Reset password

You can set/reset your password by clicking on the "Forgot password" option on the PuzzleMe login page. On selecting this option, a link to reset the password is sent to the email address entered on the forgot password screen. It's important to note that the provided link becomes invalid as soon as a new password is successfully set. Initiating the "Forgot password" option, without successfully setting a new password, does not result in the user being locked out or the existing password being invalidated.

Secure Login Set-up

The newly created password must adhere to the specified conditions displayed on the screen and must differ from the user's last five passwords. The password must contain (will be displayed on the page as well):

  • At least 8 characters
  • At least 3 of the following:
    • Lower case letters (a-z)
    • Upper case letters (A-Z)
    • Numbers (0-9)
    • Special characters (e.g. !@#$%^&*)
    • No more than 2 identical characters in a row

Two-factor Authentication (2FA)

During the initial login, users will be prompted to scan a 2FA (Time-based One-Time Password) QR code using any authenticator app like Google Authenticator (Android, iOS) or Microsoft Authenticator (Android, iOS).

Following the scan, users must enter the OTP displayed in the authenticator app on the login screen to proceed. The QR code is only displayed during the first login; subsequent logins will require entering the OTP generated by the authenticator app. In the event that a user loses their 2FA method, they should reach out to our Product Support Team for assistance.

Setting up 2FA

Account locked after 5 incorrect password attempts

The account will be locked if a user makes five consecutive unsuccessful login attempts. A notification indicating the account blockage will be displayed on the login page. In response to this, the user has two alternatives:

  • They can either contact our Product Support Team via their registered email address to request an account unblock, or
  • They can utilize the "Forgot Password" option on the login page. In this case, a password reset link is sent to the registered email address, and the account is unblocked upon the successful setting of a new password.

Rotate password every 90 days

Passwords must be refreshed every 90 days. Users attempting to log in with a password created more than 90 days ago will be unable to access their accounts. Instead, they will be redirected to an error page stating, "Your password has expired. Please reset it using the”'Forgot Password” link here.". To resolve this, users can follow the provided link in the message, choose the "Forgot Password" option, and proceed to reset their password, as detailed in the "Set/Reset password" section above.

FAQ

I need to add more emails for accessing the account.

If you would like more people to access your account than your plan allows, you can add a group email to the account. When using a group email, a single member of the group should set the password, save it, and share it with the group. When they reach the 2FA page, they should take a picture of the QR code and share it with the other group members. Each group member should add the QR code to their respective authenticator app. Any group member can log in subsequently using the shared email, password, and the One-Time Password (OTP) generated by their authenticator app.

Can I use my email to access multiple accounts?

Only one email can be used to access one Professional or Enterprise account. The same email cannot be used to access multiple accounts. If you try to add an email associated with another account, you will see an error message.
