Multi-Factor Authentication with Duo

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) enhances the security of your Marquette account by using a secondary device to verify your identity. This prevents anyone but you from accessing your account, even if they know your password. Marquette MFA is provided by Duo Security. Registration is necessary before using Duo.
