Vanderbilt University will retire the DUO multifactor authentication service on Sept. 22, 2025, completing a key milestone in the university’s transition to OneVU and Okta Verify.
Earlier this year, the Office of Cybersecurity launched VTrust, a major initiative to strengthen digital security and safeguard academic freedom. As part of this effort, the university introduced OneVU (single sign-on) and Okta Verify (multifactor authentication) as modern, streamlined solutions that improve both security and user experience.
With the transition now complete, Vanderbilt will discontinue PING (single sign-on) and DUO (multifactor authentication) as services available to the university community.
To prepare for this change, community members should:
- Confirm enrollment in OneVU and Okta Verify.
- Update any bookmarks or saved links to applications before Sept. 22, 2025.
