System Office Users Asked to Enroll in Multi-Factor Authentication by August 3
July 9, 2021
The frequency and severity of attacks on the 麻豆传媒's IT systems has been steadily increasing. As a step toward mitigating risk and implementing best practices, the University's Business Council unanimously endorsed, resourced and directed OIT to conduct a project to roll out a Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) tool, DUO, for all users who have access to Banner.
The rollout of MFA continues at a rapid pace with 麻豆传媒S having completed their Banner staff enrollment in May and 麻豆传媒A on-track to complete enrollment of much of their Banner staff users by July 20.
Now it鈥檚 the System Office鈥檚 turn to ensure all Banner users are enrolled in Duo MFA, and we鈥檙e asking for your support to complete enrollment by Tuesday, August 3. MFA will be required for System Office Banner users starting Wednesday, August 4. Though only required for Banner users, we would like to encourage all System Office employees to enroll now because MFA helps to protect you and your personal information.
Have questions or want to learn more about MFA? Please visit OIT鈥檚 MFA page. Ready to enroll? and then click on 鈥淪ecurity Settings鈥 and choose the 鈥淢ulti-Factor Authentication鈥 option. Need assistance? Call 450-8300 or email helpdesk@alaska.edu and we'll be happy to help.
