In order to protect your Cableizer account and avoid getting compromised, please make sure that you apply the following recommendations:

  1. Strong password - Use a password including numbers, symbols, uppercase and lowercase letters that is completely different from your other passwords, username, or other personal information. Passwords are transferred and stored encrypted on our server using the PBKDF2 algorithm with a SHA256 hash. As a consequence, your password is safe with us and we cannot see it in plain text. Make sure to keep your password secure and do not share it with anybody.
  2. Business email address - Use an email address that is secure and protected. We use your verified email address to let you reset your password should you forget it. For security reasons, we also send you an information email whenever we register a sensitive activity on your Cableizer account. Everybody with access to your email account can gain full control of your Cableizer account.

We are now sending information emails to your registered email address for the following account activities:

If you notice any strange activity or suspect that your Cableizer account may be compromised, please immediately log in to your Cableizer account and change your password in your user profile. Should you have lost access to your account, please contact us immediately so that we can lock your account and restore your access.

The following sections describe how to keep your Cableizer account up-to-date. All options are available in your user profile.
