DuoSecurity Enroll Devices - KBA

Overview

Why use two-factor authentication?

Duo Security two-factor authentication enhances the security of your CWRU accounts by using your phone or connected mobile device to verify your identity. Two-factor authentication prevents anyone but you from accessing your valuable data and CWRU accounts, even if they know your password.

What do I need to enroll in two-factor authentication?

Self enrollment is available via multiple methods. Information Security recommends all users enroll the following two devices:

  • Mobile phone using the mobile application
  • Desk phone (landline) using the voice call method

NOTE: Use your desk phone as a backup in the case that a mobile phone is lost, stolen or damaged.
