Duo Two-Factor Authentication

How it works

Duo, as a two-factor authentication system, has two distinct login steps.

Step 1)  Sign-in with your W&M Username and password.

Step 2) Confirm your login by entering a code sent to an enrolled device.

Enrolling In Duo

Before you can use W&M services that require Duo authentication, you need to enroll. The enrollment process is pretty simple. 

Start by checking out Duo's Enrollment Instructions.

Then go to our W&M Duo Management Site (https://william-mary.login.duosecurity.com/devices) to enroll. 

We recommend you register at least two devices, like your mobile device and your office phone. A desktop/laptop computer can not be used as the authentication device.

Enrollment from a Mobile Device
You can also enroll in Duo on your mobile device!  In the browser of your mobile device, go to the W&M Duo Management Site.  You will need to download the Duo Mobile App (iOS or Android) before or during the enrollment process.
