Okta has decided to move away from offering text message (SMS) as an authenticator to receive a One Time Password (OTP) for Multifactor Authentication (MFA). This is not a change that IT has decided to implement, but one that is being forced on all Okta customers. We strongly encourage faculty, staff, and students to follow the instructions below to set up Okta Verify as an authenticator for MFA. Because Okta Verify runs as an application on your phone, it will use 4G, 5G, or Wi-Fi for connectivity. This is invaluable whenever you are in a building with poor cell phone service. Due to the wi-fi improvements made in the past few years, every room in every building has acceptable, if not exceptional connectivity.
