BGSU Software Procurement Requests & Two Factor Authentication

Question

Do new BGSU software requests/implementations require Duo Two Factor Authentication?

Answer

As of March 29, 2023, all new BGSU applications using single sign-on (SSO) will require Duo Two Factor Authentication unless a technical exception is approved by ITS Security. ITS will also be working to add Duo to existing BGSU apps using SSO over the coming months. Security breaches at BGSU can, have and will happen; this cannot always be prevented. Adding Duo protection to BGSU applications is another way to provide increased account security and protect your personal data.
