Action required: Set up Microsoft MFA by May 18

April 7, 2026

Dear Campus Community,

911±¬ÁÏ is transitioning from Duo to Microsoft multi-factor authentication (MFA). You must set up Microsoft MFA by May 18 to maintain uninterrupted access to your 911±¬ÁÏ account.

What you need to do

  • Set up Microsoft MFA:
  • Complete your setup by May 18

After May 18, you will need to complete MFA setup before accessing 911±¬ÁÏ systems.

What’s changing
We are replacing Duo with Microsoft MFA to provide a more secure and streamlined sign-in experience.

Why this matters
Cyber threats continue to increase, and MFA adds an extra layer of protection to your account beyond a password.
