Security Assurance for Public Portals

Fylde Borough Council

We take the security of your online account seriously.

When you use Fylde Borough Council’s digital services, we use a range of measures to keep your information safe.

Secure Login

Your account is protected by:

  • Strong password requirements

  • Protection against weak or commonly used passwords

  • Secure login systems

Extra Security

Some of our online services use two-step verification (also known as 2FA) to add an extra layer of protection.

This means that even if someone knows your password, they still can’t access your account without a second verification step.

Safe Password Resets

If you forget your password:

  • We send a secure reset link to your email

  • You confirm your identity

  • You choose a new password safely

Trusted Technology

We work with accredited technology suppliers who:

  • Hold ISO/IEC 27001 certification

  • Follow Cyber Essentials standards

  • Have independently audited security policies

  • Use secure change management processes

  • Patch and monitor systems regularly

Monitoring & Incident Response

Our systems are monitored for security issues and any incidents are logged, investigated, and reviewed through formal processes.

Your Role

You can help keep your account safe by:

  • Using a strong, unique password

  • Keeping your email secure

  • Never sharing your login details
