At 207 Courier, protecting your information is our top priority. We are excited to announce significant security enhancements to our platform that bring enterprise-grade protection to your account.
Password Breach Protection
We now check passwords during registration against a database of over 600 million compromised passwords from known data breaches. This means if you try to use a password that has appeared in a previous data breach anywhere on the internet, we will warn you and ask you to choose a stronger password.
This protection uses a privacy-preserving technique called k-anonymity, which means we never send your actual password anywhere. Your password stays completely private while still being checked against the breach database.
Enhanced Security Monitoring
Our new security monitoring system tracks suspicious activity to protect your account:
- Login attempt monitoring - We track unusual login patterns
- Account lockout protection - Multiple failed attempts will temporarily lock the account
- Rate limiting - Prevents automated attacks on our platform
What This Means for You
You do not need to take any action. These security improvements work automatically in the background. However, we recommend:
- Use a unique password for your 207 Courier account
- Avoid passwords that are common words or personal information
- Consider using a password manager for generating strong passwords
We are committed to earning your trust every day. If you have any questions about these security improvements, please reach out to us at 207-762-2228.
Stay safe out there, and thank you for choosing 207 Courier!
