Duo is the multi-factor authentication solution for both UMD centralized information technology resources and UMIACS local resources. Enrollment is discrete in both of these cases but users can enroll the same Phone for both of these services. The UMIACS Single Sign-On will require Duo authentication starting December 3rd 2018. Multi-factor solutions ensure that you have something you know (ie. your password) and something you have (phone/tablet/token). This ensures that phishing and other attempts to secure your password do not result in an account breach and protect you and your data from unauthorized access.

Enrollment

Please refer to Duo's Enrollment guide which has comprehensive information on how enroll your devices.

We encourage users to enroll with their smart phone as it provides the most seamless experience for our users. We also support iOS/Android Tablets, landline (costs us credits for each use) and a U2F FIDO authenticator token (does not work with our VPN or MFA SSH services).

Management

Users can manage their UMIACS Duo settings as part of our Directory Application.

We suggest users register using a mobile phone or tablet that is always in your personal possession. If/When you upgrade or dispose of your currently registered phone/tablet please consider enrolling your new device before getting rid of your old device. Activation of your new device will require you to successfully authenticate with a currently registered device. If you no longer have the device but have kept the mobile phone number registered you can select Call Me to have Duo call you to authenticate your session to manage/enroll your devices. If you do not have access to your previous device(s) or the phone number you will need to contact UMIACS staff for assistance.
