Multifactor authentication, or MFA, is widely used to help prevent
malicious actors from gaining access to your accounts. Multifactor authentication also goes by names like 2-Step Verification or
two-factor authentication. UNC-Chapel Hill uses two 2-Step services,
Microsoft and Duo Security, to protect accounts and data at the
University.
MFA means that more than one authentication method, or factor, is
required to allow you access to an account. An example would be
requiring both a password as your first factor and a code you receive
via text as your second factor.
