What is Duo Two-Factor Authentication?
Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds a second layer of security to your online accounts. Verifying your identity using a second factor (like your phone or other mobile device) prevents anyone but you from logging in, even if they know your password. The University of Cincinnati utilizes Duo Security for two-factor authentication. Learn more about Duo

You can find more about changing your password on the Account & Password Help page. If you still have questions, contact UC IT at 513-556-HELP.
