To add two-factor authentication, passkeys, or a recovery code, see [Account Security](/security/account-security).

title: Account Security
description: Sign-in methods, two-factor authentication, passkeys, and recovery codes for your Fil One account.
---

This page covers securing the account you sign in with. For authenticating **API requests**, which is a separate mechanism, see [Authentication](/security/authentication) and [API Keys](/security/api-keys).

## Signing in

Fil One supports four sign-in methods:

- **Passkeys**, the primary method
- **Google**
- **GitHub**
- **Email with password**

A new account must verify its email address before the dashboard opens. Until you do, every page redirects to a verification screen.

## Two-factor authentication

Two-factor authentication is opt-in per user and managed from **Settings**, under **Security**. Three factor types are supported:

| Factor | Shown in the dashboard as | What it is |
|--------|---------------------------|------------|
| Authenticator app | **Authenticator app (OTP)** | A time-based one-time code from an app such as 1Password, Authy, or Google Authenticator |
| Security key | **Security key** | A roaming WebAuthn authenticator, for example a YubiKey |
| Device biometrics | **Device biometrics** | A platform WebAuthn authenticator: Face ID, Touch ID, or Windows Hello |

**SMS and email codes are deliberately not offered.** Both are vulnerable to SIM-swap and mailbox-compromise attacks, so Fil One only supports factors bound to a device or an app.

You can enrol more than one factor and remove individual ones from Settings.

## Passkeys

Passkeys are listed separately from two-factor methods in Settings, under **Passkeys**. If you have none enrolled, the dashboard prompts you to add one on your next sign-in.

You can hold up to **20 passkeys** on one account, which is enough to cover several devices without having to retire an old one to add a new one.

## Recovery codes

A recovery code is a single-use code for signing in if you lose access to your authenticator. Generate or replace one from **Settings** → **Security** → **Recovery code** → **Regenerate**.

Generating a new code invalidates the previous one, so store the new value somewhere durable before you close the dialog.

## Changes to security settings require re-authentication

Four actions are gated behind a fresh two-factor check, even inside an already signed-in session:

- Removing a two-factor method
- Removing all two-factor methods
- Removing a passkey
- Regenerating a recovery code

If your current session was not established with a strong factor, the dashboard sends you back through sign-in to step up before the action proceeds. This means someone who gains access to an open session still cannot quietly strip the account's protections.

## Changing your password

Change your account password from **Settings** → **Security** → **Password** → **Change**. This sends a password-reset email to your registered address.

All API requests to Fil One must be authenticated using AWS Signature Version 4 (SigV4). This is the same authentication method used by AWS S3, so any S3-compatible SDK or tool handles it automatically.

:::note Looking for account sign-in?
This page is about signing **API requests**. For the account you log into the dashboard with, including two-factor authentication, passkeys, and recovery codes, see [Account Security](/security/account-security).
:::

:::note Keys and endpoints are region-specific
Every access key belongs to a **single region**, chosen when you create it, and it only authenticates requests to that region's endpoint. Examples below use `eu-west-1`, the default region — for `us-east-1`, use `https://us-east-1.s3.fil.one` and region `us-east-1`. If you store data in both regions you need a key for each.

# Account Security

Source: https://docs.fil.one/security/account-security

Covers securing the account you sign in with. API request authentication is a
separate mechanism (see Authentication / API Keys).

## Signing in

Four methods: passkeys (the primary method), Google, GitHub, and email with
password. A new account must verify its email address before the dashboard
opens; until then every page redirects to a verification screen.

## Two-factor authentication

Opt-in per user, managed from Settings > Security. Three factor types:

| Factor | Dashboard label | What it is |
|--------|-----------------|------------|
| Authenticator app | Authenticator app (OTP) | Time-based one-time code from an app (1Password, Authy, Google Authenticator) |
| Security key | Security key | Roaming WebAuthn authenticator, e.g. a YubiKey |
| Device biometrics | Device biometrics | Platform WebAuthn authenticator: Face ID, Touch ID, Windows Hello |

SMS and email codes are DELIBERATELY NOT OFFERED (SIM-swap and
mailbox-compromise risk). Only device- or app-bound factors are supported. More
than one factor can be enrolled, and individual ones removed.

## Passkeys

Listed separately from two-factor methods, under Settings > Passkeys. With none
enrolled, the dashboard prompts to add one on next sign-in. Limit is 20 passkeys
per account.

## Recovery codes

A single-use code for signing in after losing access to an authenticator.
Generate or replace from Settings > Security > Recovery code > Regenerate.
Generating a new code invalidates the previous one.

## Step-up re-authentication

Four actions require a fresh two-factor check even within a signed-in session:
removing a two-factor method, removing all two-factor methods, removing a
passkey, and regenerating a recovery code. A session not established with a
strong factor is sent back through sign-in first, so someone with access to an
open session cannot quietly strip the account's protections.

## Changing your password

Settings > Security > Password > Change sends a password-reset email to the
registered address.
