REQUIRED 9/19: UWW Net-ID Multi-Factor Authentication
Starting at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, September 19, students must use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) with Duo to log in to university systems along with Net-IDs and passwords as an additional layer of security to prohibit ransomware attacks and phishing scams.
Set up your account today to be prepared -- it takes less than 5 minutes to ensure access to university systems.
To self-enroll, use our online article “Getting Started with MFA with Duo.” Make sure that you have two devices available. You will need your mobile phone* (for Duo Mobile) and another device to start the enrollment process. For guided assistance from IT Services, visit our table in the UC from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. the week of September 11 or the Help Desk in Andersen 2000.
Self-enroll before 9/19 to be automatically entered to win an iPad or early access pass to the Tech Surplus Sale!
Student workers who already use MFA with Duo do not need to re-enroll and will be entered into the prize drawing.
After completing your enrollment, please visit go.uww.edu/mfa-selfservice to generate and print backup codes. These codes allow you to access university systems if your mobile phone is unavailable.
*If your mobile phone does not support Duo Mobile, request a free token/fob from the Help Desk by emailing helpdesk@uww.edu -- include your name, Net-ID, and pickup location (or mailing address for fully online students).
If you have any questions, please contact the Help Desk at 262-472-4357 or helpdesk@uww.edu.
