Your Taberna account controls where your money is sent, so it is worth locking down. Most of this is under Account → Security, from the menu at the bottom of the sidebar; changing your email sits under Account → Profile.

​
Turn on two-factor authentication

Two-factor authentication means signing in needs your password and a six-digit code from your phone, so a stolen password is not enough on its own.
  1. Press Enable 2FA. Taberna shows a QR code.
  2. Scan it with an authenticator app — Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password, whichever you use. If you cannot scan, the setup code is printed underneath to type in by hand.
  3. Enter the six-digit code the app shows, and press Verify.
  4. Taberna shows your backup codes. Save them somewhere safe now.

The backup codes are shown once and cannot be retrieved afterwards. They are how you get in if you lose your phone. Copy them into a password manager before pressing Done.
From then on, signing in asks for a code after your password. Turning 2FA off asks for your password to confirm.

​
Check what is signed in

The Active Sessions card lists every device signed in to your account, with its browser, operating system and when it was last used. Your current device is marked Active. Press Revoke on anything you do not recognise; it signs that device out immediately and without asking twice. You cannot revoke the session you are using — sign out normally for that.

​
Change your password

If you sign in with a password, the Password card sits under Account → Security. Accounts that sign in with a crypto wallet have no password, so the card is not shown for them.
  1. Press Change password.
  2. Enter your current password.
  3. Enter a new password — at least 12 characters — and confirm it.
Changing your password signs out every other device. The one you are changing it on stays signed in.

​
Change your email

Your email lives under Account → Profile, in the Email card. It shows your current address and whether it is Verified.
  1. Press Change email.
  2. Enter the new address. If your account has a password, you also enter your current password to confirm; wallet accounts are not asked for one.
A confirmation link is sent to the new address. Your email does not change until you open that link and confirm — until then the account keeps its current address. The link expires in 24 hours.

​
Reset a forgotten password

If you cannot sign in, start from the sign-in page rather than the dashboard.
  1. On the sign-in page, press Forgot password?.
  2. Enter your email and submit.
Taberna sends a reset link if that address belongs to an account that uses a password. The confirmation screen looks the same whether or not an account exists, so it never reveals which addresses are registered. The link expires in 1 hour and works once. Opening the link lets you set a new password — again, at least 12 characters. Completing a reset signs you out on every device, so sign back in with the new password. If you have two-factor authentication on, you are still asked for your code when you sign in.
