How to Activate and Claim a Scorecard in SecurityScorecard

Answer

The step by step method is as follows : Here example is given for scorecard domains ebcfx.com & ezforex.com to easily relate the concept.

To register users in ebcfx.com & ezforex.com scorecards and claim those scorecards, an email from those domains are required (ex: myuser1@ebcfx.com and myuser2@ezforex.com respectively). Upon registration of above users, they will be automatically attached to those scorecards/companies.

See below the procedure for registering an account (ex: myuser1@ebcfx.com under ebcfx.com) and therefore marking ebcfx.com scorecard/company as Active and claimed :

1. Go to https://platform.securityscorecard.io/#/signup/
2. Enter First Name, Last name
3. Enter the Work Email myuser1@ebcfx.com
4. Tick the box agreeing to the EUSA and Privacy Policy
5. Click on Create Account
6. In the next 5min or so, an email will be sent to myuser1@ebcfx.com to confirm the email and finish the account creation by creating a password. When Setting the password, please ensure that the url on the top has the following format https://platform.securityscorecard.io/?password-reset-key=AAAAAA&etc… the url must contain the password-reset-key parameter to be save the password.
7. Upon saving the password, the account will be created and logged in automatically. A user activity will be therefore recorded under ebcfx.com and will be marked as Active automatically within the next 72hours.
8. If there are no further actions done in the next 90days by a user in ebcfx.com, the company/scorecard ebcfx.com will have again a status of inactive. At that moment a login via myuser1@ebcfx.com will trigger a change of the status to Active for the next 90days.
