Duo adds an additional layer of security when you sign in to a TU system by requiring something you have at the time of login. Various ways to authenticate using these devices include the following:
- Duo Push using the Duo Mobile app displays an alert message on your smartphone/tablet screen using the installed Duo app. Select Approve on your smartphone/tablet to complete the sign-in on your computer. This is the recommended method.
- Passcodes can be sent via a text message, generated from the Duo mobile app which requires no cell/data/internet service, or from NetID Management back uo codes. These codes containing a numeric code that you enter on your computer to complete the sign-in.
You must enroll your devices in Duo before authenticating. You will find enrollment instructions for your devices on the
Duo category page of the TechHelp Knowledge Base.
