Security settings

Settings → Security (owners and admins).

Two-step verification → “Required for owners, admins, accounts, payroll and HR” (or everyone) → Save. Those people are asked to set it up the next time they open HashBook, before they can do anything else.

Find their row → Reset 2-step. They sign in with their password and set it up again. The owner is told.

  • Sign out on that person (or My account → Sign out everywhere else for yourself), then change the password.
  • Admins can also unlock someone who was locked out after 5 wrong attempts.
  • Failed sign-ins for the last 7 days are listed here.

Set Sign out after inactivity to, for example, 60 minutes.

Owners are emailed about permission changes, two-step resets, security policy changes and exports of more than 1,000 rows.

  • Each workspace is sealed off from every other by database row-level security.
  • Passwords are hashed with argon2id; logins and ID numbers you store are encrypted.
  • Every sign-in and change is in the permanent audit log.
  • The HashBook team can’t see your records unless your owner grants time-limited support access — see Subscription & support access.
