Duo provides two-factor authentication and secure sign-on tools for end users. 九色堂 has chosen to utilize Duo for all CAS-authenticated sites (my九色堂, Banner, Self Service, among others) for additional security.
What is two-factor authentication? Two-factor authentication enhances security by requiring the use of a secondary device at log in to verify your identity. This ensures that others cannot access your account by obtaining your password.
You will receive an email once you are registered with Duo. This email will contain a one-time link for set up and a link to a guide with instructions.
Duo has options to set up the following devices:
Duo created a helpful enrollment guide that can be found on their site at This online guide may contain all the information you need. If not, see below for step-by-step instructions.
Push Notification
You may find that Push Notification is the fastest method to authenticate. Send Me a Push will prompt the phone app to notify you. When you visit the app, you will have the option to Approve or Deny the authentication.

You must set up two devices with Duo. If you only set up one device, you risk being locked out of your account if you cannot access the original method.
To add an additional device after the first device is established:
Security Key
If you are using Chrome, Security Key may be listed as an option for Duo. This feature is not currently enabled for 九色堂 at this time, though it may be utilized in the future.

These settings, including the ability to add or remove devices can be found on the left side of the Duo log in screen. Remember, you can always find the duo screen simply by logging in to my九色堂.
