SSPR vs Account
I have two similar but different services that are close enough in function for the distinction to be confusing. This service is based on an open-source tool, and because of the functions I want to make available to Matt-Cloud users, I need to build two different versions of the same tool. To put this another way, I am too lazy to write my own SSPR so I need to use the tools that others have so graciously made available to me for free.
SSPR means Self-Service Password Reset. The point of this site is so Matt-Cloud users can handle forgotten password resets. The service allows users to set up a two-factor code and to confirm an email address so that when they forget their Matt-Cloud password they can reset it using a variety of methods.
The Account site is for Matt-Cloud users to update account email address or password when already logged in. It uses the SSO to start users logged in, and will only re-authenticate when requesting a secure change.
