The Digital Security Card (DSC) is a battery operated security device which generates a series of random codes to be entered along with your user name and password upon each log in attempt. As physical possession of the DSC is required to obtain the codes and log in, the device effectively prevents hackers who may have compromised your computer or information from accessing your account. Instructions for operating the DSC are outlined below.
Step 1 - When logging into your account, enter your user name and password as usual. If successful, a 6-digit Challenge Code will appear.
Step 2 - Turn on your device by pressing the “press” button until the 'PIN>' display appears, enter the 4-digit PIN code you specified at the time you requested the device and press the “OK” button.
Step 3 - Enter the 6-digit Challenge Code from the login screen (step A) into the device when the 'CHALLNG>' display appears, press the “OK” button and a response code will appear.
Step 4 - Enter the 8 digits of the response code (Step C) into the login Screen. Select the Login button to proceed.
Note that the buttons on your security cards are not touch sensitive and must to be pressed to operate.

Clients who have performed an opt-out from the Secure Login System (SLS) program expose themselves to certain risks and are therefore subject to certain restrictions (e.g. ability to trade Pink Sheet and OTCBB stocks). Considering this, along with the protection benefits afforded through a complete SLS protection, you may decide to opt back into the Secure Login System. The following article provides the step-by-step instructions for accomplishing this.
Please note that in order to modify the security settings for an account, the primary user needs to login to the Client Portal. If your user is not allowed to change the security settings, the system will show you a notice and will point you to the user which has such rights.
In order to opt back into the Secure Login System, please proceed as follows:
1. Open your browser and go to the web page ibkr.com.

IBKR allows individuals to maintain multiple user names within a single account or across distinct accounts under their control. Individuals who do not wish to maintain multiple physical security devices may elect to consolidate and share a single device across their users. The prerequisites and the procedure for sharing devices are outlined below.
The possibility of sharing a physical security device will be granted only if ALL the conditions below are respected:
a) The participant users belong either to the same entity or to different entities but with the same identification data (Date of Birth, Citizenship, Country of Legal Residence, Identification Document type and number or Social Security Number for US Citizens and residents).
b) The participant users do NOT have a temporary security device (Temporary Code, Online Security Code Card) currently assigned to them.

1. Among the possible candidates, identify the device offering the highest level of protection and the user that device belongs to. We will call that user the device owner
2. Log in to your Client Portal page with the requesting user (NOT the device owner)
a. In the vast majority of cases your sharing request will be automatically and immediately approved, processed and enforced. In case the approval of our Compliance department is needed, your request will stay in a pending status until this step has been cleared.
c. Here below you can see the most common error messages and their causes:
- Less secure device: This error is returned if you set up the less secure token as the one to be shared. Please identify the most secure device and share that one.

Закрытие счета
Доступ к Порталу клиентов для просмотра и/или печати отчетов по операциям и любых налоговых форм предоставляется только после возврата устройства и закрытия счета. Закрыв счет, вы сможете осуществлять вход без устройства безопасности используя только Ваш действующий логин и пароль.
Приведенные ниже шаги необходимы, чтобы:

1. Нажмите на кнопку Запрос физического устройства (Request Physical Device).
3. Введите четырехзначный Мягкий PIN1 (Soft PIN) для Вашей ЦКБ+. Запомните PIN-код, который Вы ввели, т.к. он понадобится для активации и использования устройства. При желании Вы можете сменить счет, на котором будет заморожен депозит в размере 20 USD2. Нажмите Далее.
4. Вы увидите данные своего заказа. Убедитесь, что они верны. Если Вы захотите внести изменения, нажмите на белую кнопку Назад под полем с данными (не в браузере). Если данные верны, отправьте запрос, нажав Далее.
5. Вы увидите подтверждение с примерной датой доставки3. Для завершения нажмите OK.

2. Ключ безопасности и доставка бесплатны. Однако при заказе нового устройства на Вашем счете будет заморожена небольшая сумма (20 USD). В случае потери, повреждения или кражи устройства, а также если оно не возвращено IBKR при закрытии счета, эта сумма будет использована в качестве компенсации его стоимости. В остальных случаях сумма станет доступна после того, как Вы вернете устройство IBKR. Подробнее можно узнать в "Базе знаний" IBKR.
3. В целях безопасности замещающее устройство активируется автоматически по истечении 3-х недель с даты отправки. IBKR сообщит Вам о приближении срока и выполнении активации.

A. У Вас временно нет доступа к своему постоянному устройству безопасности.
B. Вы потеряли свое основное устройство безопасности и хотите запросить новое устройство или сохранить доступ к счету до получения нового постоянного устройства.
Мы предполагаем, что при указанных выше случаях Вы уже известили службу поддержки IBKR и получили временный код (см. статью KB70). Теперь Вы можете продлить период действия временного доступа следующим образом:
1. Откройте браузер и зайдите на ibkr.com
2. Нажмите Вход (Log In)
6. Отобразится Ваша онлайн-карта кодов безопасности. Нажмите Печать2.

If your device is lost, intentionally damaged, stolen or if you close your account without returning it to IBKR, we will use that amount as a compensation for the loss of the hardware. In any other case, the hold will be released once your device has been returned to IBKR. More details on the IBKR Knowledge Base.
3. For security reasons, the replacement device is set to auto-activate within three weeks from the shipment date. IBKR will notify you when the auto-activation is approaching and when it is imminent.
