Elements Identity Security
A collection of short easy steps to get started in taking the product into use
Follow the steps below to get started with the product.
Step 1 - Creating a WithSecure™ Business Account
You need a WithSecure™ Business Account to access WithSecure™ Elements Security Center, which is the unified management platform for managing all WithSecure™ Elements products. There are two scenarios:
- When you purchase the product from a WithSecure partner, the partner typically creates a Business Account for the first administrator in your organization. If this applies to you, you have received an email from WithSecure with a temporary password and a link to log in to Elements Security Center.
- If your account has not yet been created, but you have received a subscription key from your partner, you can use the subscription key to create a WithSecure™ Business account for the first administrator in your organization. To do that, use the company self-registration link for your specific region:
- For Europe, Middle-East, and Africa: https://emea.epp.elements.withsecure.com/#/create-company-account
- For America: https://amer.epp.elements.withsecure.com/#/create-company-account
- For Asia Pacific: https://apac.epp.elements.withsecure.com/#/create-company-account
- For Europe, Middle-East, and Africa: https://emea.epp.elements.withsecure.com/#/create-company-account
To be able to use Elements Identity Security, you first need to have Elements Endpoint Detection and Response configured. Please follow the steps in the Quick Start Guide for Elements Endpoint Detection and Response before moving on to Step 2 in this Guide.
