CUNY is adding Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to the CUNY Login. CUNY Login MFA will provide more secure access to CUNY applications and services, and better protect both your data and CUNY’s data from cyberattacks.
CUNY MFA will be applied to the CUNY login, including any services that leverage the CUNY login account (e.g., Zoom, Brightspace, Dropbox). CUNY Login MFA is separate from the Microsoft MFA implementation required when using Microsoft 365 applications and services.
CUNY MFA will be implemented on Monday, July 14. Instructions on setting up the CUNY Login MFA for use with the Microsoft Authenticator mobile app, when you have access to both a computer and your phone, can be found under the Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) tab on our Website.
As always, please contact the HelpDesk@csi.cuny.edu or call 718.982.HELP for assistance.
