Overview
Multifactor Authentication (MFA), also called two-step verification, is ECU's security action that verifies your identity during log in to ECU resources from a non-ECU network. For a successful log in, you need your ECU password (factor one) plus identity verification using a device (factor two).
New users are prompted to set up their authentication methods within Microsoft 365 first time they log in to ECU email. Authentication methods are also managed through Microsoft 365 account security settings. See the Related Articles of this page to access tutorials.
