Anyone with a UMN Internet ID can use Duo two-factor authentication for all University sign-in pages. As of November 2019, Duo two-factor authentication is required for all students, faculty, and staff.
This option will add a second layer of protection to your University Gmail, Google Drive, and other applications that use your University internet ID for authentication.
You must first Enroll a Duo Device before using Duo.
Note: Once you have enrolled in Duo Security at Sign-In program, you will not be able to opt out of it. You will be able to un-enroll specific devices, but your account will remain associated with Duo Security at Sign-In.
