[Emeritiassoc] more about Azure

[Rossiter, Rosemary]

Dear Emeriti:

Here is an update of sorts on the switch to Azure (also called Microsoft Authenticator).  You may have received the email below or maybe not.

If you need immediate help you can try techhelp at ohio.edu<mailto:techhelp at ohio.edu> or ServiceDesk at ohio.edu<mailto:ServiceDesk at ohio.edu>.  My previous email made a mistake in suggesting helpdesk at ohio.edu<mailto:helpdesk at ohio.edu>.

If the Association receives more helpful information we will pass it on to you.

Best regards,

Dear Bobcat,
For greater security and more flexible options, Ohio University is moving from DUO Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to Azure MFA. Microsoft Azure MFA offers a more user-friendly experience than DUO, and the option to "Remember Me" for 90 days instead of 30 days.

All OHIO emeriti with active OHIO accounts will be required to enroll in Azure by Jan. 31, 2023. If you do not enroll in Azure MFA prior to Jan. 31, 2023, you will be prompted to enroll the first time you attempt to access any online application that requires an OHIO login. If by Feb. 28, 2023, you have still not enrolled, we will assume your account is no longer in use and it will be frozen.

You will need your smartphone and computer to enroll in Azure. If you also use the Ohio University VPN, you can follow the supplemental instructions<https://help.ohio.edu/TDClient/30/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?ID=265#vpn-information> to update your VPN access, once you complete your MFA migration.

Enroll in Azure!<https://help.ohio.edu/TDClient/30/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?ID=265>

Don't have a smartphone?
If you do not have a smartphone or would like to use a different method to authenticate, like receiving a phone call to a land line or an SMS message, navigate to Step 1 in the Knowledge Base instructions<https://help.ohio.edu/TDClient/30/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?ID=265#instructionstart> and select Option 2: I prefer to use a phone call or text message<https://help.ohio.edu/TDClient/30/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?ID=265#phonetext>.

Thank you for being proactive in keeping your University account safe and secure,
