Multi-Factor Authentication
Overview
ITS has implemented security measures to protect your personal information, intellectual property, and University data. MFA protects you even if your LUC password becomes compromised. Using MFA means that users will download the Microsoft Authenticator application on their mobile device, or receive a code via text message to securely sign into online resources. Your LUC UVID and password plus one of the authentication methods is used to verify your identity and protect the community from data breaches.
Benefits
Using MFA will decrease the probability that a hacker can impersonate you to gain access to computers, accounts, and other online resources.
Getting Started with MFA
- See MFA: Getting Started for an overview of the enrollment process.
- See MFA: Detailed Instructions for step-by-step visual instructions.
- As a backup, we ask that you set up more than one MFA method using the MFA preferences page. If you're unable to access one device, a backup method will allow you to continue accessing your account.
