Multifactor Authentication

OCCC works diligently to create a campus where students, faculty, and staff feel safe on campus and utilizing our technology resources. As use of Information Technology has grown over the last few years so has the risk of having personal information compromised. Cybersecurity experts acknowledge that the best method to secure your information and accounts is to utilize multifactor authentication, commonly referred to as MFA.

Multifactor Authentication (MFA) is an authentication method that requires the user to provide two or more verification factors to gain access to a resource. Instead of just asking for a username and password, MFA requires one or more additional verification factors, which decreases the likelihood of a successful cyber-attack.

OCCC is requiring all students, faculty, and staff to utilize MFA when accessing your account or OCCC resources. Please review the information on this site to configure or change your MFA account.

If you have general questions or issues with enrolling in MFA, you may contact the MFA hotline at 405-686-7777  or email techsupport@occc.edu.

Please note: You need to setup text messaging as your primary authentication method.   You are NOT required to install the authenticator app on your phone to complete the MFA setup but it is recommended to have both text and authenticator app set up.
