Two-Step Login ( aka Dual Factor Authentication ) is now available to everyone at Cornell. Two-Step Login allows you to add extra security to your Cornell netid and password, decreasing the chances of your Cornell account being compromised, paychecks rerouted, or identity stolen.

Over the last year, IT@Cornell and Chemistry IT have seen an uptick in the number of netids being compromised by increasingly sophisticated phishing emails. Presently, this service is optional, but highly encouraged by Chemistry IT. Chemistry IT is available to assist you in setting up Two-Step Login.

See http://www.it.cornell.edu/cms/services/twostep/ for information on Two-Step Login and see https://twostep.netid.cornell.edu/ to set it up with your netid today. Chemistry IT does suggest you add more than one device or phone number to your netid in case you lose any one device.
