Duo Security MFA

As part of the South Texas College information security strategy, we are enforcing multi-factor authentication to protect remote access to sensitive systems.  Duo Security MFA will be used to ask individuals for a second confirmation of their identity at login using a physical device in their possession such as a smartphone.  You can learn more about multi-factor authentication by watching this YouTube video.
