Two-Factor Authentication Moving To Authenticator App

I want to make you aware of an important change that will take effect in February 2027.

All members of our campus community currently use two-factor authentication (2FA) through either the Microsoft Authenticator app or text message verification.

As part of Microsoft's authentication roadmap, support for text message-based authentication will be discontinued.

Beginning in February 2027, all Alfred University users will be required to use the Microsoft Authenticator app as their second factor when accessing university systems.

To prepare for this change, please download and configure the Microsoft Authenticator app on your smartphone if you have not already done so. The app provides a simple and secure authentication experience and is already in use by many members of the campus community.

You may switch to the Authenticator app at any time. However, migration will be mandatory before February 2027. I encourage you to make the change well in advance of the deadline.

I have included information from Microsoft below regarding the Authenticator app and the enrollment process. If you need assistance with installation or configuration, please contact the ITS Help Desk.

The ITS team will be available throughout the coming months to support users as we complete this transition.

If you feel that you cannot install the application on your phone, please reach out to the helpdesk so they can assess your situation and explore other options if necessary.

Thank you for your attention to this important security update.

All my best and Fiat Lux!
