Block unverified login attempts

Using the enhanced security protection of our Attack Protection Policy, you can block login attempts from unverified users. Any user that attempts to log in with an email or mobile number identifier that hasn’t been confirmed is blocked.

Why is this helpful?

This feature helps to ensure that only users that have intended to sign up or register and have properly verified their correct details are allowed to log into your site. When an attempt is made and this feature is enabled, a login_unverified_identifier event type is emitted to inform you of the attempt.

Users that attempt to log in with an unverified identifier, receive a message similar to the following:

Unresolved include directive in modules/ROOT/pages/block-unverified-logins.adoc - include::docs:ROOT:partial$r_error-table.adoc[]

— Error key: error.unverifiedLogin
