We have not had many, if any, discussions about using MFA on local systems logins & I would tend to agree with the thought that some faculty & staff would not be pleased if we did elect to enforce it on local systems. Duo use on systems where it is in place is mandatory & there is no opt out process available. Thank You, Will Telfer, M.S.

I can only imagine how challenging it would be to get faculty on board:) On Fri, Jun 7, 2019 at 1:59 PM Kevin Wilcox <wilcoxkm () appstate edu<mailto:wilcoxkm () appstate edu>> wrote: On Fri, 7 Jun 2019 at 15:54, Brian Clark <brian.clark () caspercollege edu<mailto:brian.clark () caspercollege edu>> wrote: Just wondering if it is overkill to use it on desktops and laptops that are logged into locally. Ah I see! We do use it for local systems for sys-admins (we have one entire team who rolled it to all of their desktops, laptops and servers before we even had a chance to ask them if they were interested in trying it out!). Given how often schools tend to find hardware keyloggers, I am 100% in favour of using it for all local logins but there's some concern our faculty won't go for it. Right now it's an "in IT-only" sort of initiative. kmw -- Brian Clark Systems Programmer Casper College 125 College Drive Casper WY 82601 brian.clark () caspercollege edu<mailto:brian.clark () caspercollege edu>
