Account

Creating an Account

  1. Go to the Fabi-SC ID website
  2. Click “Register”
  3. Fill in your details:
    • Username (unique, cannot be changed later)
    • Email address
    • Password
  4. Click “Create Account”

Email Verification

After clicking “Create Account”, you will see a Security Check (random words) on your screen. You will also receive a verification code by email.

  1. Verify the Security Check: Compare the words shown on your screen with the words in the email - they must match. This protects you from phishing attacks.
  2. Log in with your username and password
  3. Enter the 6-digit verification code from the email
  4. Click “Verify Email”

If you need to resend the verification email, click “Resend” on the verification screen. A new Security Check will be displayed.

A verified email is required to:

  • Access your account

Logging In

  1. Go to the Fabi-SC ID website or click “Sign in with Fabi-SC ID” in a supported application
  2. Enter your username (or email) and password
  3. If you have two-factor authentication enabled, enter your code

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

You can secure your account with two-factor authentication:

  • TOTP (Authenticator App): Use an app like Google Authenticator, Authy, or any other TOTP-compatible app
  • Security Key: Use a hardware security key (like YubiKey) for phishing-resistant 2FA

To enable 2FA:

  1. Go to your Security Settings in the Dashboard
  2. Choose your preferred 2FA method
  3. Follow the setup instructions

You can have both methods enabled at the same time. When logging in, you can choose which method to use.

Passkeys (Passwordless Login)

In addition to 2FA, you can set up passkeys for passwordless login:

  • Passkeys let you sign in without entering your password
  • They use your device’s biometric authentication (fingerprint, face) or a hardware key
  • Passkeys are more secure than passwords because they cannot be phished

To add a passkey:

  1. Go to your Security Settings in the Dashboard
  2. Click “Add Passkey”
  3. Follow your browser’s instructions to register your device

When signing in, click “Sign in with Passkey” instead of entering your password.

Password Requirements

  • Minimum 8 characters
  • At least one uppercase letter
  • At least one lowercase letter
  • At least one number
  • At least one special character

Changing Your Email Address

You can change your email address from the Security Settings:

  1. Go to Security Settings in the Dashboard
  2. Click “Change Email”
  3. Enter your new email address
  4. If you have a verified backup email, you can optionally choose to use it for verification instead of your current email
  5. Click “Send Verification Codes”
  6. You will receive verification codes at both your current (or backup) email and your new email
  7. Verify the Security Check: Compare the words shown on your screen with the words in each email - they must match
  8. Enter both 6-digit codes and click “Verify”

You can change your email once per day.

Backup Email

A backup email is an alternative email address that can be used to:

  • Reset your password if you lose access to your primary email
  • Verify email changes if you lose access to your primary email
