    Hello,

    I’ve had several successful attempts of outsiders gaining access to my account, despite me changing the security password several times. Basically, nosy/even jealous people trying to learn about what I am working on. They go to my drafts and post unfinished work and invite other to view and then critique my unfinished work in an attempt to smear my name and my work. I’ve complained about this several times to the culprits – they (most of them) are creatives themselves and they know first hand that it is a major ‘no-no’ in sharing your unfinished work with the general public. In compromises future integrity of the work. I don’t know what you can do for me, however your documentation show tells viewers to contact you when there’s a security breach and this is what I am doing. I look forward to future communications.
    Sincerely,
    Susan Ward

    Hi there, if this is a repeat problem for you, you should consider setting up 2-step authentication for your site so that you’ll need an extra security step to log in.

    You can read about security in general and 2-step authentication in these support guides:

    Keep Your Site Safe and Secure

    Enable Two-Step Authentication

    Hope that helps.

    Hi there,

    I checked the logs of your account and I haven’t found any suspicious activity. However, I strongly encourage you to enable the two-step authentication that @justjennifer mentioned above.
