We strongly recommend registering more than one device. This will ensure that you have easy access to multiple authentication methods in the event that you do not have entree to your primary device. We besides recommend the use of the free and convenient Duo Mobile app .
Why does KSU need Duo?
Duo provides an supernumerary layer of security system for your NetID, designed so that no one but you can access your account, even if your password becomes compromised. You will be prompted to authenticate through Duo each time you log-in to Duo compatible services .
The service provides multiple options for taking advantage of this extra authentication method acting, including push button notifications through a smartphone app, short codes delivered through the app, or earphone calls.
Passwords are increasingly easy to compromise. The 2018 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report lists “ Use of stolen Credentials ” as the # 1 top action contributing to organizational breaches and electronic mail phishing as # 3. The mental hospital receives thousands of malicious emails casual and, although most are routed to a exploiter ’ s junk booklet or blocked, some are delivered and trick the recipient to disclose their NetID password. At KSU, 80 % of phishing attacks utilize compromised KSU credentials and as these attacks have gotten more complex, the potency of passwords alone has eroded to the bespeak of being inadequate to protect the datum to which the institution is entrusted .
Two-factor authentication is required and actively used by the University System of Georgia and member institutions. It adds a second layer of security system, keeping your account plug evening if your password is compromised. With Duo Push, you ’ ll be alerted correct aside ( on your phone ) if person is trying to log in to your account. This second gear agent of authentication is separate and independent from your username and password— Duo never sees your password .
