In order to improve the information security, multi-factor authentication (MFA) will be available on March 23, 2023 in some systems.

After the MFA service is launched, a dialog window to set MFA (Fig.1) will appear when logging in to the following services.

• Google Workspace (Gmail, Google Classroom, Google Drive etc. by using TUFS account)
• Information Infrastructure Service System (IISS)
• Zoom (Only if you sign in with Google by using TUFS account)

If you want to enable MFA, click on "REGISTER DEVICE"; if you do not want to use it, click on "SKIP THIS STEP".

Point to keep in mind

• The MFA is not automatically enabled and must be configured on your own to enable it.
• The MFA is not mandatory for the time being.
• The dialog window to set MFA will appear when you newly sign in. If you are already signed in, the dialog will not appear.
• After registering the device to enable MFA, you can always deactivate MFA from below link with registered device.
• When you lose registered device, we will deactivate MFA. (It may take time to respond.)
• When you change the model of your smartphone, please transfer the application data properly.
