Why access-first auth matters?

In this article, I briefly explain why Toqen.app is built around an access-first authentication infrastructure. 1. Where fast access matters There are scenarios where filling out forms gets in the way: one-time website visits Smart TVs events and webinars admin panels and systems where ownership must be confirmed frequently systems where services, agents, or bots interact with each other In these cases, email and passwords slow things down and increase risk. Toqen.app provides access instantly through confirmation, without entering unnecessary data. 2. Access without unnecessary data Instead of creating and managing accounts: open the website scan a QR code confirm access Access is confirmed at the moment of request, not stored in advance. It does not matter where you are or what device you use everything happens in just a few steps. 3. Access control at the moment of use With Toqen.app , every access can be: confirmed restricted revoked This gives control not only at login, but during actual usage. 4. Simple and predictable security Most authentication issues come from human error: forgotten passwords password reuse phishing input mistakes With Toqen.app : no passwords to enter no unnecessary steps every access is confirmed on your device device-bound cryptographic keys are used This reduces mistakes and makes the process predictable. Even in stressful situations, there is only one action confirm access. It follows modern approaches similar to WebAuth, with a more straightforward user experience. 5. Less data, lower risk Traditional systems store: emails passwords tokens With Toqen.app : only data required for access is used no unnecessary personal information is stored each access request is single-use This reduces the impact of mistakes and data leaks. 6. Simple and fast integration For developers, speed of integration matters as much as security. Toqen.app : does not require complex setup does not require identity-centric user profiles allows collecting data required by business logic integrates as an access layer on top of existing systems This makes it possible to introduce secure access without redesigning the architecture. Summary Toqen.app is an approach where: access is confirmed in real time unnecessary data is not required users stay in control the system remains simple and clear You do not remember access you confirm it when you need it. P.S. The app is available on the App Store. Closed testing on Google Play is ongoing message me if you want to try it. The client app is open source, so you can review how access confirmation works and what data is actually used: https://github.com/toqenapp/mobile-react-native

Forgot your password again? QR Man is here to help.

Friend: "So, what’s this Toqen.app thing anyway? Just another password manager? I have everything saved in my browser, I’m good." Me: "That’s the thing - it’s not. Browsers remember your passwords. Toqen.app makes them unnecessary." Friend: "What do you mean 'unnecessary'? How am I supposed to log in? Magic?" Me: "Think of it this way: a standard login is like a door with a cheap lock. Anyone with a copy of the key-your password-can walk right in. Toqen.app turns your smartphone into a universal digital key. You don’t have to type anything. You just walk up to the 'door' (open the website), scan a QR code, and your phone tells the site: 'Everything’s good, this is the owner, let him in.'" Friend: "Wait, so I don’t have to remember anything? That sounds like a security nightmare. Okay, what if I’m sitting in a cafe and someone else tries to log in using my name from the other side of the world?" Me: "That’s the main 'wow' effect. An attacker gets nowhere because there are no reusable credentials on the server. Unlike a password, which can be stolen and used again, the server only holds your public key. To log in, your phone creates a unique device signature for that specific moment. The server only verifies the signature - it never sees or stores your actual 'secret.' Even if someone intercepted the data, they couldn't use it to log in later. Your 'master key' stays physically on your phone and nowhere else." Friend: "Right, but what if I lose my phone? Or worse, what if it gets stolen?" Me: "That’s the key part. It’s like the keys to a modern car: no one else can even start the 'engine' without your specific biometrics. If you lose it, you restore access via a backup. It’s stored in an encrypted format that is mathematically impractical to crack without your master key. Meanwhile, your lost device remains useless to an intruder because it's protected by multiple layers of hardware-level security." Friend: "So... it’s basically like FaceID for the entire internet?" Me: "Exactly. It makes your digital life seamless. You move through websites like you’re walking through your own home, where all the doors open automatically as you approach. No stress, just access."

Open-sourced the mobile auth layer (no personal data, looking for feedback)

Hey everyone, I recently open-sourced the mobile client of Toqen.app - an access-first authentication system I am building. One thing that matters to me here: the app does not collect personal or sensitive user data (no email, phone number, location, etc.). It only uses device-bound identifiers and cryptographic keys required for authorization - you can verify this directly in the code. This mobile layer is where access actually gets confirmed: - user decision - device signature - real-time verification The app itself does not grant access - everything is verified on the backend after the device signs a short-lived challenge. Repository: https://github.com/toqenapp/mobile-react-native Product access: iOS (App Store): search for “ toqen.app ” Android (closed testing): https://forms.gle/f9FcbHyHJiajmFWV7 Typical use cases include: SaaS platforms gated digital content memberships online education environments event access systems other products requiring time-bound and policy-defined authorization I would really appreciate any feedback or honest critique.

I finally made it here ...
I’ve been passionate about startups for as long as I can remember, going all the way back to high school. In 1999 , I moved to Orange County to join a startup that we eventually sold. But even back then, I never had the chance to come to Silicon Valley and meet fellow startup enthusiasts. So I’m truly glad to be here now. I’d be happy to meet you at the Bulgarian National Pavilion, Booth #5 , which may well be the first national pavilion at Startup Grind .
