Duo

Duo is the University of Maryland's solution for multi-factor authentication.

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) requires something you know (your UMID password) and something you have (like a smartphone or tablet app, or a mobile phone or landline phone) as an added layer of security to prevent anyone else from accessing your account. Multi-factor authentication is one of the most effective methods to prevent phishing, helping to protect you and the UMB community.
