About Apps Connection
In order to change the application connection settings of your TeraCLOUD account, users must configure these settings in the MyPage section in their account.
To strengthen the security level from TeraCLOUD's end, the password used in order to connect TeraCLOUD through other applications must differ from the user's account password.
Accounts registered by 16:25, June 2, 2021, are by default configured to turn Apps Connection on. If the user wishes to refuse external connections, please follow these steps.
- As of June 2, 2021 the default apps password will be the same as the user's account password.
- If the user changes their account password after that time and date, the user's apps password will remain the same.
- TeraCLOUD can not respond to any inquiries regarding passwords as it is saved in an encryped format. In the event that the password is forgotten, please reissue apps password following these steps and reconnect.
* When you reissue your Account Password, please refer here.
