 ===== Why Zextras Auth =====
-Almost everyone has had a situation where they were forced to **reconfigure all of their mail client apps and devices** when they changed their Zimbra Web Client password.  Using Zextras Auth, each app and device has a very secure and independent password significantly improving security.  Further, if a device is lost or stolen, it is easy to revoke the password for specific device without having to reconfigure **all** your other devices.
+E-mail security, hacking and malware infections are a huge concern these days.  Zextras Auth aims to mitigate these risks.
+Almost everyone has had a situation where they were forced to **reconfigure all of their mail client apps and devices** when they changed or lost their Zimbra Web Client password.
+Using Zextras Auth, each app and device has a very secure and independent password that significantly improves security by creating strong passwords that only work on the intended device.  This means that in the event of a compromize, the stolen credentials will not be useful to the attacker.
+Further, if a device is lost or stolen, it is easy to revoke the password for specific device (or remotely wipe it) without having to reconfigure **all** your other devices.
+===== Using Zextras Auth =====
 **Zextras Auth passwords don't need to be managed, written down or remembered.**  In the event of needing to know the password for your app or mobile device, you **just create a new password with a couple of clicks**.  This too improves security significantly.
