New Feature
Introducing Maropost Identity Application
Maropost Identity is an application where users can manage their account profile and security settings such as Multi-Factor Authentication (also referred to as Two-factor Authentication).
The Maropost Identity application is designed with a vision that all our Maropost users will have a platform to manage a single profile for all their accounts across different Maropost products. As of this release, the feature is only accessible to Marketing Cloud users.
Click your username on the top-right corner of the Marketing Cloud application, and then from the drop-down menu, select Profile Settings. Or, you can directly access the Maropost Identity application at: https://id.maropost.com.
Enhancement
Strengthening of the Two-Factor Authentication
Two-Factor Authentication, also referred to as Multi-factor Authentication, provides an additional layer of security by employing two verification steps. In this release, we introduced a few enhancements to our existing Two-Factor Authentication feature, making your accounts more secure.
Instead of getting the verification code in your registered email address, you'll now get the code on the phone number that you provide during setup. This will ensure your account safety in case the email account itself is compromised.
To learn more about Two-Factor Authentication in Marketing Cloud, see Two Factor Authentication.
You'll automatically set up the Two-Factor Authentication when logging into your account. During setup, you will be asked to provide a phone number on which you'll want to receive the verification code.
On the next UI screen, you must enter the verification code that you receive on the phone and finish logging in.
