DUO TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION
At Smith College, ITS is now providing two-factor authentication to help you protect your account information. What does this protect? Your information in Workday, including your social security number and your personal financial information. It protects your email communications, access to your coursework, research data, and other electronic content including pictures and chat logs, and access to cloud-based services.
Two-factor authentication adds an extra step to the Smith login process, most commonly tapping an alert on your mobile device, and is the best protection against account compromise.
New faculty, staff and student accounts are automatically enrolled in Duo. The set-up must be completed on a computer (i.e. not a mobile phone or tablet)
