Employees and students new to UFV will be prompted complete this combined registration, which offers two benefits: SSPR (self service password reset), and MFA (multi-factor authentication).
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) adds a security layer to protect UFV computer accounts.
A security key is a device that plugs into a USB port on your computer, and can be used to verify multi factor authentication (MFA) or for passwordless sign in. Use this option if you do not have a mobile device or do not want to use your mobile device.
If you don't have access to your MFA method (e.g. lost phone, traveling), we can generate a temporary access pass for you to use instead.
How multi-factor authentication (MFA) is used to secure your UFV account.
The Microsoft Authenticator app helps you sign in to your accounts when you're using multi-factor authentication (MFA). The Authenticator App works without cell service, and it's free on iOS and Android devices.
How to check fi you are registered for MFA, and what to do if you lose access to your MFA verification methods (e.g., lost phone).
