About Elevated Security Mode
Keymailer operates at different security levels depending on the current threat level.
Like many popular sites, Keymailer is subject to continual probing and attack. We track and measure the intensity of attacks in realtime and adjust the threat status at which the site operates.
We do not disclose the full details of the conditions which lead to changes in threat status, otherwise we would be disclosing information helpful to potential attackers.
Elevated Security Mode is the first threat status above the Normal Security Mode, and adjusts how some actions operate, such as key redemption, and limits other actions such as email changes.
