Overview
This section is about keeping your own account safe. Everything here is available from your profile menu.
What’s in this section
Section titled “What’s in this section”- Signing in: logging in with email and password, activating your account, forgotten passwords and locked accounts.
- Two-factor authentication: add a second layer of protection using an authenticator app.
- Backup codes: emergency codes for when you can’t reach your authenticator.
- Passwords: changing and resetting your password, and the password rules.
- Trusted devices & active sessions: see where you’re signed in and sign out devices.
- Login history & security alerts: review sign-in activity and get alerted to anything unusual.
The essentials
Section titled “The essentials”- You sign in with email and password on your organisation’s address (
yourcompany.villva.com), optionally with a 6-digit code from an authenticator app. - There is no SMS, no one-time-code login and no magic link: those are never used.
- Turning on two-factor authentication is the single best step you can take to protect your account.
