See a detailed record of settings changes, login attempts and more at the Account Security Log. If you've granted other users access to your account via the Linked Accounts feature, their actions will also show up here.

Note: This log shows changes made to your account, not individual domains. Each domain has its own change history visible on the domain settings page.

Enable "Two Factor Authentication" to greatly increase account security.

Wildcards:
If you created a wildcard address, choose any address at your domain to log in. For example: *@mydomain.com would allow you to sign in as anything@mydomain.com, abc@mydomain.com, whateveryouwant@mydomain.com, etc.

Category:
If you created a category-level email address, log in using any domain in the category: Let's say you've created category 'X', which contains 'mydomain.com'. If you created mail@[Category: 'X'] as an account, you could sign in as mail@mydomain.com.

Choose how much time will pass before NameBright automatically logs you out. You can log out at any time using the “Logout” link at the top of the page.

We recommend a short interval for maximum security, especially if you plan to log in to your account from public or shared devices.

By default, the ability to delete domains is Disabled (recommended).

To enable domain deletion, you will create a 4-digit PIN and begin a 7-day security period. After 7 days, you will be able to delete domains using this PIN. If you lose or forget your PIN, it cannot be retrieved - you will need to create a new one which will start a new 7-day security period.

Extended Validation (EV) SSL helps demonstrate your commitment to security to your customers.

When you have an EV SSL certificate on your website, many modern browsers make the URL bar green and highlight the fact that you have passed extra levels of identification to obtain your certificate.

EV SSL is perfect for companies who plan on storing valuable customer data or processing credit cards through their website. When requesting an EV SSL, the issuing certificate provider will require a registered legal name (an individual will not suffice), registration numbers and address(es) of registering organizations.
