Sign in and create a workspace

~2 minutes. End state: AuthSec account, workspace, and MFA configured.


Step 1 — Enter your email

Go to app.authsec.ai. Enter your work email and click Continue:

AuthSec sign-in page

Existing accounts skip straight to the password screen (step 3). New accounts enter the signup flow below.

Step 2 — Create your workspace (new accounts only)

Fill in the three fields:

Create workspace form

  • Workspace Domain — a short slug (lowercase, no spaces) that identifies your workspace, e.g. acme-cloud. It must be unique across AuthSec.
  • Password — pick something strong; you'll add MFA in a moment.
  • Confirm Password

Click Create workspace.

AuthSec sends a 6-digit verification code to your email:

Verify email — enter the 6-digit code

Enter the code and click Verify code. If it doesn't arrive, check spam or click Resend code.

Step 3 — Sign in

Enter your password and click Sign in:

Sign in — enter password

Step 4 — Secure your account (MFA)

On first sign-in, AuthSec prompts for multi-factor authentication. Two methods are available:

Choose MFA method — WebAuthn or TOTP

Use your device's fingerprint reader, face recognition, or a hardware security key. Click the WebAuthn (Biometric) card and follow your browser's prompt — no app needed, nothing to type.

Option B — Authenticator app (TOTP)

Click the TOTP (Authenticator App) card. AuthSec shows a QR code:

Scan the QR code with your authenticator app

  1. Open your authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Authy, 1Password — any TOTP app works).
  2. Scan the QR code, or tap Manual entry key and paste the secret.
  3. Click I've added the account.

AuthSec asks you to verify the setup — enter the 6-digit code from your app:

Verify TOTP setup

On subsequent logins, after entering your password you'll see this screen — enter the current code from your app:

Enter authenticator code on login

Add both methods

Add a second method any time from account settings. Both configured means you're never locked out if one device is unavailable.

You're in

After MFA you land on the workspace dashboard:
