If the app has not been updated, the sign in process for USF systems using MFA will generate a failed authentication attempt, preventing you from signing into your USF accounts.Īdditionally, Microsoft has stated Apple Watches will no longer be able to use the Authenticator app for MFA and push notification approvals.
To prepare for these changes, you should make sure your Authenticator app is updated by February 27. This number matching process using the Authenticator app is the safest and most secure way to authenticate your identity and protect your data and credentials at USF. The phone call method of authentication will not be affected by these changes and will continue to work the same as it does now.
In these situations, the Authenticator app and sign in process will default to the current tap approval without number matching as a requirement. There are certain processes at USF using MFA that will not currently be affected by this change, such as the new requirement to use MFA as part of the sign in process for the Virtual Private Network (VPN) and Remote Desktop Gateway (RDG). The added security feature shows where the login attempt is occurring on a map, along with information about the specific application requesting authorization and the email address associated with the sign in attempt. This step provides an additional layer of security to ensure you are the person actively trying to sign in. You will need to type that number into the Authenticator app to complete the approval and sign in process. When you respond to an MFA push notification using the Authenticator app, you will be presented with a number on the screen you are using to sign in.
