DUO MFA

What is DUO and how do I use DUO to sign in to my account?

DUO is a two-factor authentication application used to achieve an additional layer of security for certain systems. Two-factor authentication requires you to provide something you know (your password) PLUS something you have (your phone) when signing in. This helps protect us all from criminals that steal usernames and passwords.

Three steps to stronger authentication

DUO authentication is required when accessing any of the following when off-campus:

Microsoft 365 applications like Outlook (email/calendar) and OneDrive
Workday
The Community Solution Education System VPN

All employees are required to be enrolled in DUO for security purposes. DUO works as a second-step to verify your identity when signing in to your work account. This process is called Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).

How do I use DUO to sign in to my account?

After enrolling in DUO, you will be prompted to approve sign-ins with your authentication method of choice (phone call, passcode through text message / mobile app, or push notification through the mobile app).
