User accounts are secured and authenticated via email address and password.
Email addresses are initially validated upon account creation by sending an email with a secure (per user hash) URL which must be clicked on prior to the account being verified.
If an end user forgets their password, they can request their password be reset from our login page, which sends an email to the account of record that includes a reset link with a unique key.
