Secure GitHub 2FA in Your Browser

GitHub security is essential for developers. Reaching for a mobile phone every time you push code or log in slows you down. Authium integrates directly with GitHub to autofill your 2FA codes in one click.

Step-by-Step Installation & Setup

1

Open Security Settings

Log into GitHub, click your profile picture, select Settings, and navigate to "Password and authentication".

2

Enable Authenticator App

Under the Two-factor authentication section, click "Enable" and select "Authenticator app" as your primary method.

3

Scan the QR Code

When GitHub displays the setup QR code, open the Authium extension from your browser toolbar, click the QR scanner icon, and select the QR code on the page.

4

Verify & Complete Setup

Authium will save the key. Copy the generated 6-digit code from Authium and paste it into GitHub to complete enrollment.
