Emily we implemented Duo about 2 months ago when we went live with Box. We like it a lot. We’ve since implemented its 
use with Zendesk and hope to use it with Banner in the near future. Another great thing with Duo is the educational 
pricing you can get if you are an Internet 2 member. The price is low enough that you would be crazy to not have two 
factor for staff\faculty and students.

Subject: [SECURITY] Duo: love it or not so much?

All:

We're preparing to launch Single Sign On architecture as part of a larger IAM project, and we are looking at our 
options for 2-step verification / 2-factor authentication / whatever we like to call it these days.  We have been 
advised that Duo is a good solution, and I am curious if others on this list have any experiences they can share.  We 
are likely going to go this way, so I am seeking any positive feedback or potential warnings/gotchas we should look out 
for in our implementation.

Thank you so much!
