Last updated: Jul 16, 2025

Creating a Security Cloud Sign On Account

To create a Security Cloud Sign On account, you need to provide an email address where the account activation email will be sent. Every Security Cloud Sign On user account is required to use multifactor authentication (MFA). Duo MFA is included with Security Cloud Sign On account at no charge, or you can use a time-based one-time password from the Google Authenticator app.

If you already have a Security Cloud Sign on account, see Signing in to Security Cloud Control.

Procedure

1

Open the Account Sign Up page.

2

Enter the requested information, agree to the end-user license agreement, and click Sign up.

An activation email is sent to the address you provided.

3

Locate the "Activate Account" email from Cisco and click Activate Account.

The activation link expires in 7 days.

4

Select a Duo multifactor authentication option (Touch, Duo Mobile, Security Key, or Phone Number) and complete the verification process. See Duo Guide to MFA and Device Enrollment for help.

5

Optionally, add additional authentication factors, or click Skip for now.
