2FA protects you

If you are using two-factor authentication (2FA), even if a hacker has your password, your information is probably safe.

Effective immediately, students with Windows computers, Apple Macintosh computers, iPads, Windows phones, and Windows RT tablets can take advantage of the program. The program will be available for students’ Android phones in the near future. 

Details of the program are outlined at this web page.

When students are no longer enrolled in UD classes, they will need to buy their own Office licenses or use other software (e.g., OpenOffice, LibreOffice) to open the Office documents they created while they were enrolled.

This program is not available for University-owned systems or for UD employees (unless they are also students). Access to Office products for UD-owned computers and UD employee use can be found on the UDeploy server. 

For further information, consult the Microsoft Office for UD Students web page or contact the IT Support Center.
