Re: 2 factor authentication

[Brian Epstein <bepstein () IAS EDU>]

For everyone that has a smartphone, we will user it for the verification
portion.  For the edge cases, we will have to come up with something else.
We are looking at implementing it everywhere we can over the next 12-24
months.  I heard a great talk on this at the Educause Security 19
conference.  The discussion was around implementing it everywhere that is
possible so you don't have to manage which service/role warrants MFA.  That
really spoke to me as the management and decision making process can be
daunting.  If you decide to use it everywhere, though, the only thing you
have to manage is your users, who will be getting used to it anyway.  Might
not be suitable for all organizations, but it makes a lot of sense to me.

Thanks,
Brian
