    Why you should use 2FA for Oregon State University?

    Oregon State University is a great place to learn and grow, but it's also important to keep your online accounts secure. That's why we recommend enabling 2-factor authentication (2FA) on your OSU account. 
     
    
     2FA adds an extra layer of security to your account by requiring a second form of verification in addition to your password. This can be a code sent to your phone or a biometric scan, making it much harder for hackers to gain access to your account. 
     
    
     At OSU, you can enable 2FA through the Duo Security app. This app is easy to use and provides an extra level of protection for your account. Plus, it's free! 
     
    
     When it comes to security and privacy, it's important to take extra precautions. Make sure to use a strong, unique password for your OSU account and never share it with anyone. Also, be wary of phishing scams and only enter your login information on official OSU websites. 
     
    
     By enabling 2FA on your OSU account, you can rest assured that your personal information is safe and secure. So why wait? Take the extra step to protect your account today.
