As part of ongoing efforts to enhance digital security at UBC, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is being extended to UBC’s Virtual Private Network (VPN) service starting the week of July 22, 2024.
MFA is already used at UBC for several services. It adds an extra layer of security, making it even harder for unauthorized individuals to access your account.
If you already have a device enrolled for MFA (i.e., the Duo Mobile app on your mobile phone), no further action is needed.
If you have not yet enrolled in MFA, see step-by-step instructions and FAQs on how to set up MFA for VPN access. If you need assistance, contact the MedIT Service Desk.
