Hello,

We would be interested with similar information.
I started compiling some public information found on other institutions
websites regarding their 2FA roll-out, policy and solutions to compare to
the current plan we have.

Thank you,

Hi Cybersecurity Members,

we are reviewing approaches to MFA and would appreciate responses on the
below questions:

(1) If you have an MFA deployment, is this just for staff, or only for
students or for both?  What about Alumni?

(2) What were the main business/technical drivers surrounding the decision
on the above deployment?

(3) What systems based scope was MFA implemented for: i.e.

   - Only for key identified apps (example email etc)
   - VPN
   - Privileged Access (Admin roles)
   - Identity federation and SSO, LDAP etc
   - Access to on Prem web apps/cloud apps
   - Remote Desktop
   - Other

(4) What MFA solution do you use?

(5) Preferred auth factor style for best UX?

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

Tim
