You can use your hardware token to get a one-time passcode (OTP) that you can use for secure authentication with PingID. To set up your hardware token, you need to register or 'pair' it with your account.
Pairing creates a trust between the hardware token and your account so that you can use it to authenticate during the sign on process.
You can use a hardware token to access your account using a Web browser, to access your company's VPN, or to access a Windows login or Mac login machine.
Pairing your hardware token (web)
Register or 'pair' your hardware token so that you can generate a one-time passcode (OTP) and use it to authenticate securely with PingID when accessing your account or app from a web browser.
After you have paired your device and authenticated successfully, you can also use it to authenticate for Windows login or Mac login, if required.
Pairing your hardware token (VPN)
Register or 'pair' your hardware token so that you can generate a one-time passcode (OTP) and use it to authenticate securely with PingID when accessing your VPN.
Pairing your hardware token (Windows login)
Register or 'pair' your hardware token so that you can generate a one-time passcode (OTP) and use it to authenticate securely with PingID when accessing your Windows login machine.
