Login Security Increased

We just wanted to advise members of why they have to login daily now.

Logging in Our website techs made some security updates recently to bring the Breastcancer.org site to confirm to best practices and better protect our members. All members will need to login again after 24 hours lapses. Though this might not be great for some users, it will keep things more secure.

Email password encryption has also been encrypted to make them more secure too. As a result, we are no longer sending users their passwords via email (which was less than ideal).

Sorry for any inconvenience but data security on websites is very important with the cyber-attacks that are becoming more prevalent. These changes are to protect your security and emails.

Hoping you accept these changes as necessary in today's world.

    Does this mean that we will loose our unread count every 24 hrs? This bug is still not fixed from the last big rollout.

    Not certain, but we certainly hope not to be the case. It doesn't seem to be the case. Please let us know if it is a problem (or any other glitches) and we will flag that with our techs. Thanks for stating your concern.
