UNT/UNT System VPN Access to Require Duo MFA

Beginning Feb 29, 2024, the UNT VPN access will require Duo multi-factor authentication (MFA) in addition to your UNT account password. For more info on Duo MFA, visit our Duo MFA FAQ Page. Note: The DUO Mobile App is the default MFA method for VPN. See DUO Append Mode for alternate MFA methods.

This is a security enhancement to guard against password compromises to prevent unauthorized access to UNT VPN and the resources protected the VPN service. This security enhancement will reduce the risk to your UNT account and our data.



If you would like to use the University of North Texas virtual private network service, VPN, without signing in to a browser, you can install UNT's Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client on your machine.
