Duo Users Guide

 Duo provides two-factor authentication and secure sign-on tools for end users. WSU has chosen to utilize Duo for all CAS-authenticated sites (myWSU, Banner, Self Service, among others) for additional security.

What is two-factor authentication? Two-factor authentication enhances security by requiring the use of a secondary device at log in to verify your identity. This ensures that others cannot access your account by obtaining your password.

You will receive an email once you are registered with Duo. This email will contain a one-time link for set up and a link to a guide with instructions.

Duo has options to set up the following devices:

• Duo App (for smartphones or tablets)

• Cell Phone (without using the Duo App)
• Landline
• USB Security Key (YubiKey): With the key, there is a departmental cost involved. For more information, contact the Help Desk: 316-978-HELP, option 1 or helpdesk@wichita.edu.

Duo created a helpful enrollment guide that can be found on their site at guide.duo.com/enrollment This online guide may contain all the information you need. If not, see below for step-by-step instructions.

Log in options may be set up during enrollment under the When I Log In dropdown menu.

These settings, including the ability to add or remove devices can be found on the left side of the Duo log in screen. Remember, you can always find the duo screen simply by logging in to myWSU.
