Do the Two-Step with Duo Universal Prompt
On July 12, IU is upgrading the Two-Step Login (Duo) to Duo Universal Prompt. The update will require the Push authentication (with some exceptions like hardware tokens). Options for Call Me or Entering a Passcode via text (SMS) will be removed.
The upgrade will make logging in to IU systems simpler and will further protect the IU community from advanced phishing attacks.

Enhanced Exchange security measures rollout
The university-wide upgrade to Modern authentication for Exchange email is going through a slower rollout than initially announced. The IU community will receive direct communication when your account is scheduled to update. Some of you may need to remove the email account profile and re-add the account profile on your devices.
This security enhancement is happening because Microsoft is ending basic authentication and will require multifactor authentication instead.
