Six things worth checking, and an honest answer for each
A short walk through the state of your NexGuard account: verification, two-factor, recovery codes, active sessions, password health, breach watch. Anything we have not actually measured says so rather than guessing, and if a sign-in looks unfamiliar you can end that session on the spot.
Illustrative preview — a look at the interface.
The problem
Account security settings live in six different screens, so nobody visits all six. And the usual checkup gives everything a green tick by default, which quietly turns “we have never checked this” into “this is fine” — the one reading that is never safe.
How it works
One list, six steps, three possible answers: done, needs attention, or unknown. Unknown is a real state and it is shown, not counted — because a step nobody has measured belongs in neither the good column nor the bad one. Sign-in notices sit alongside, so an unfamiliar session and the control to end it are in the same place.
How it works
Account Checkup, step by step
Look
The checkup reads the state of your account: verification, 2FA, recovery codes, sessions, password health, breach watch.
Sort
Each step lands as done, outstanding, or unknown. Only the ones actually measured count towards what is outstanding.
Notice
A sign-in from a device or network we have not seen before raises a notice, ranked by how unfamiliar it is.
Act
End a session you do not recognise, turn on 2FA, print fresh recovery codes — from the same screen.
What you’ll get
Built the NexGuard way
“Unknown” is an answer
A step we have not measured says so. Never-checked is not the same as fine, and pretending otherwise is how checkups become decoration.
Ending a session is never sold
Sessions and the control to end one sit outside every plan gate. Responding to a suspicious sign-in is not a feature to charge for.
Notices you can verify
A new device, a new network, a return after months of silence, or a run of different networks in one hour — each stated as what it is.
Privacy first
Designed to protect, never to snoop
Sign-in notices are built from what the account already records — a device id, a timestamp, and a one-way fingerprint of the network prefix. NexGuard does not look up where an IP address is, so it will never tell you a sign-in came from another country.
