MFA Sign-up Instructions

Purpose

In an effort to offset the risk of phishing attempts and fraudulent activity in our ever-growing digital environment, Christian Brothers University has implemented multi-factor authentication.

Impact

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) requires users to provide a secondary validation method before logging in to any of the below services:

• All Microsoft Office 365
  • Banner 9
    • Blackbaud Award Management
      • Canvas
        • Cisco WebEx
          • Interstride
            • • My CBU
                • OCLC WMS
                  • Slate
                    • Starfish
                      • TravelBank
                        • Xfinity On Campus

How to Setup CBU Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Navigate to the Office 365 Portal.

The initial login to the Office 365 Portal will state the following “More Information is Required”. Continue past this screen by clicking “Next” and follow the set-up prompts to complete MFA configuration.

CBU highly recommends using the Microsoft Authenticator or another authenticator mobile app. Authenticator apps are the most secure and easy to use MFA methods.

If you have any issues with this process, questions about MFA, or need to re-register an MFA device please contact the CBU ITS Help Desk at help@cbu.edu or (901) 321-4438.
