Frictionless AWS MFA for Developers
Securing root and IAM accounts with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is an AWS security best practice. Authium gives you instant, secure access to AWS OTP codes right on your desktop.
Step-by-Step Installation & Setup
Navigate to IAM Console
Sign into the AWS Management Console and open the Identity and Access Management (IAM) console.
Manage MFA Device
Click your user name in the navigation bar, open the "Security credentials" tab, and under "MFA device", click "Assign MFA device".
Select Virtual MFA
Select "Authenticator app" (virtual MFA device) and click Next. Click "Show QR code" on the AWS setup screen.
Scan and Sync
Open Authium, scan the AWS QR code, and enter two consecutive 6-digit codes generated by the extension to finish sync.
Key Benefits of Authium
No Phone Required
Sign into complex AWS console setups without hunting down a mobile device for a security token.
