EDA Account Recovery Phase 2
EDA Hybrid - Decoupled
Who?

Impacted? | No | No | No | No | Yes |
What?
Users can now recover their accounts using a new phone and their existing email address. The process no longer requires an identification number for matched accounts, and messaging for ‘admin disabled’ accounts is now more intuitive.

Improved Security Posture
Enable end user portal login only with client ID for tracking & controlling the user access.

The standalone portal is now private and inaccessible to unauthorized users.
Why?
By requiring OHID login, access to the portal is restricted to verified users, thereby minimizing the likelihood of unauthorized entry and safeguarding data breaches.
