Two-Factor Authentication

Two-factor authentication strengthens access security by requiring two methods to verify your identity. These methods can include something you know - like a username and password, plus something you have - like a smartphone app to approve authentication requests. Due to the number of attempted and successful account compromises UF is increasing account security by augmenting the thing you “know” (your username and password) with a Two-Factor Authentication platform called Duo, allowing you to use a mobile phone app and more, to protect your personal data and institutional systems.
