Methods and systems are provided for automatically securing account access by verifying account information with an email provider. The methods and systems automatically determine whether provided login identification and account information, in the form of an email address, is valid by a server requesting validation information from the email server of the email address. The request is automatically provided, as a background process, in response to receiving login credential information entered by a user. The email server can provide verification of the email address, whether a password associated with the email address has changed, or if the request bounces. Push notifications may be utilized by the email server to notify registered entities of any changes to login credential information associated with an account. The methods provided secure account access and active sessions subsequent to an email account owner changing a password or terminating the email account.
