Sign-in security: MFA and passkeys

This content is not available in your language yet.

Your TebibHost account can spend your organization’s money and delete its servers. Add a second factor: it stops anyone who learns your password. All of this lives under Your account → Sign-in security.

A passkey signs you in with your device’s fingerprint, face or PIN (or a security key), and can’t be phished. You can register several (laptop, phone, a hardware key) and name each one.

  1. Sign-in security → Passkeys → Add a passkey.
  2. Follow your browser’s prompt.
  3. Next time, choose to sign in with a passkey.

Any TOTP app works (for example Aegis, Google Authenticator, 1Password).

  1. Sign-in security → Authenticator app, and start the setup.
  2. Scan the QR code with the app.
  3. Enter the six-digit code from the app to turn it on.

After this, signing in with a password asks for a code.

Recovery codes let you in if you lose your phone or passkeys. Each works once. Generate them in Sign-in security → Recovery codes, and keep them somewhere safe and offline. Generating new codes makes the old ones stop working.

Your account → Sessions lists where you’re signed in. Sign out a single session, or sign out everywhere else if you think someone else has access.

Console sessions that passed a second factor or a passkey carry auth:mfa = true, which policies and guardrails can require. Access keys never do: protect them with expiry and source networks instead. See Access keys and the CLI.

Change it in Your account → Change password. Forgot it? Use Forgot password on the sign-in page to get a reset link by email.
