Registering for service

To get here, you have most likely already completed a few key steps:

1. You have requested a free trial or subscription to the Privileged Access Service.

   If you did not request a free trial or subscription, fill out the following form to request access to Privileged Access Service:

   https://www.centrify.com/free-trial/

2. You have registered for a Centrify account with a valid email address and have received an “Activate Your Centrify Account” email followed by a “Your Centrify Account Is Ready - Next Steps” email with your account details.

   Your account details include the user name for an administrative account, a temporary password, and a unique customer identifier.

3. You have logged on using the account name, temporary password, and URL from your email notification.
4. You have set and confirmed a new password to activate your account.

If you have not completed these preliminary steps, stop here and verify that you have received the “Your Centrify Account Is Ready - Next Steps” email and that you can log on using the account information in the email.
