About MFA @ UCSB

UC Santa Barbara joins other UC campuses in taking meaningful action to help our UCSB community guard itself against cybercrime.

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds an additional layer of security by verifying not only that the person knows a password, but that the person also has access to a registered device, like a personal smartphone. UCSB has partnered with Duo Security, a system that makes it easy for you to enable MFA.
