Revocable Access Tokens for Remote Services
Access tokens allow you to connect to selected service instances without giving access to your entire private network.
Without a token, an instance cannot be accessed.
How tokens work
- Each token is linked to one instance
- Each instance represents one selected service
- Tokens are used for authentication when connecting
- Tokens can be shared, rotated or revoked at any time
Why tokens instead of network access?
VPNs are useful when you want access to a private network. Securicloud access tokens are intended for cases where you want access to a selected service, such as Home Assistant, SSH, RDP, VNC or a web application.
This makes temporary or delegated access easier: share the token or access link, then revoke it when it is no longer needed.
Default token
A default token is automatically created when an instance is created.
Managing tokens
- Create new tokens for the same instance
- Copy or share access links
- Revoke tokens when access is no longer needed
- Rotate tokens for security
Security
Securicloud secures connections between your device and your network using TLS encryption.
This means your data is protected while traveling over the Internet, even when accessing services that are not secure by default.
Securicloud does not replace authentication of your services. You are responsible for securing access to your services (for example, using strong passwords or other authentication methods).
