When it comes to keeping accounts secure, password-based authentication demands constant effort—carefully choosing strong passwords, regularly rotating them, and ensuring they’re not reused across platforms. This level of discipline, while important, can be a hassle for both users and administrators.
At TeuPortal, we noticed that most of our users already rely on robust authentication methods provided by large, trusted companies like Google and Microsoft. These tech giants have vast resources and dedicated teams working to protect their users’ accounts, ensuring that the security measures they offer are continuously updated and optimized. If you already have an account with one of these providers, why not leverage their expertise for secure, hassle-free authentication?
That’s why we made the decision to remove traditional password authentication. There are simply better, more secure ways to log in.
What If You Don’t Want to Use Google or Microsoft?
No problem! We’ve implemented a simple and secure alternative—Magic Link Authentication. With this method, all you need is your email. When you want to log in to TeuPortal, simply enter the email address associated with your account. We’ll instantly send a login link to your inbox. Click on that link, and you’re in—no password to remember, reset, or rotate. It’s a quick and secure solution, reducing the risk of forgotten passwords, weak combinations, or potential hacks.
By moving away from password authentication, we’re able to focus on enhancing TeuPortal’s core features and explore additional authentication methods in the future, all while ensuring your security remains a top priority.
