How to Register for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

In June, prior to the start of Exeter Summer all students will be required to register their Exeter account for Multi-Factor Authentication.  MFA is a method to validate your login credentials when a login looks suspicious.  Depending on how you set up MFA, you will get prompted from the Microsoft Authenticator app or receive a code via a text message.

The first time you log into your Exeter email account, you may be prompted for “More Information Required”.  This is to set up MFA.  If you wish to use the Microsoft Authenticator app, click Next on the initial page and follow the prompts to register. You will need to download the Microsoft Authenticator app on your cell phone.

If you would prefer to have a code sent to your cellphone via a text message, click on I want to use a different method and select Phone and follow the prompts. (See screenshot.)

Note: If your password expires, you will not be able to access the Authenticator app.  We recommend you set up at least two methods to ensure you will not have a problem resetting your password  — cell phone, email, and Authenticator app.

To register or modify your MFA method go to https://aka.ms/mfasetup

   Video on how to upload documents to uPrint.  Please note this is only available from on-campus while connected to PEA-Secure.

2. Email document attachments to uprint@exeter.edu from your Exeter email account.  This option is available to all Exeter network account holders from on and off campus.

Once you have either uploaded your document(s) or emailed document(s) as an attachment, go to a public printer, tap your PEA ID badge.  The first time you go to release your print job, you will need to authenticate to the print service by entering your Exeter username and password, e.g. jsmith, NOT your Exeter email.

How to Protect your Network Account

One way to stay safe is to THINK BEFORE YOU CLICK!

Cybersecurity Best Practices:

• NEVER share your network credentials. ITS (or any reputable company) would never ask for your login credentials in an email. Emails of this nature are generally phishing scams trying to steal your identity.
• Use security passcode on smartphones/tablets.
• Always be suspicious of any email that asks you to open an attachment, click on a hyperlink or forward the e-mail to others.
• Do not download unfamiliar software off the internet Maintain OS/Windows update and antivirus software.
• Always logout of a public/lab computer.
• Always logout or lock your computer before walking away from your desk (Windows: Windows key+L locks computer / Mac OS10.X: command+shift+q logs out of Mac).
  To set your Windows computer screen saver to go to the logon screen, go to Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Change Screen Saver and check On resume, display logon screen. You may also want to adjust the Wait time in that same window > OK.
