About Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
How Tos
Heads up! The most secure MFA method is the Microsoft Authenticator App.
How It Works
Multi-factor combines something you know (UARK email and password) with something you have (a trusted device, like a phone).
- Log into a UARK online service like Outlook, Blackboard Learn or UAConnect.
- Receive a notification on your smartphone.
- Verify access to your UARK account.

Policy
