To add an extra layer of protection to your site to help prevent potential anonymous password resets and account requests from being initiated from from automated software, your organization can register for a free Google reCAPTCHA account. Once you have an account, you can integrate it with EmpowerID as an OAuth Provider application. To do so, edit the default Google reCAPTCHA OAuth provider in EmpowerID, adding the Site Key and Secret Key associated with your reCAPTCHA account.

To get reCAPTCHA and learn more about setting it up for your domain, visit https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/.

Note

If you use a proxy on your EmpowerID servers or desktops, you must allow the following sites to be opened over the proxy.
