The Office of Information Technology Two-Factor Authentication Presented by: Anthony Espinoza – Office of Information Security Mark McCoy – OIT Infrastructure Services
The Office of Information Technology Agenda What is two-factor authentication? Why are we implementing two-factor? What is affected? What tool is used and how does it work?
The Office of Information Technology What is two-factor authentication? To provide assurance of a user’s identity, we require users to authenticate Authentication is based on factors Knowledge factors (something you know, like a password) Possession factors (something you have, like a phone) Inherence factors (something you are, like a fingerprint) Adding a check of “something you have” to the regular myUTSA ID password check (“something you know”) provides two- factor authentication
The Office of Information Technology Why are we implementing two-factor authentication? UT System memo requiring two-factor authentication in certain cases Phishing attacks at UT System institutions resulted in financial losses If the secret in a single-factor authentication scheme gets compromised, full authentication is possible Successful phishing attacks can compromise single-factor authentication
The Office of Information Technology What services will be affected by two-factor authentication? When an employee connects to the UTSA network via VPN or terminal services such Citrix Modification of employee banking or financial information Server admin or other individual working from a remote location uses admin credentials to access a server containing confidential university data Faculty services tab in ASAP – November 2015
The Office of Information Technology What tool is used and how does it work? We will use mobile devices to provide two-factor authentication using a tool called Toopher Toopher works with both iPhones and Android phones, and provides an SMS (text messaging) option
The Office of Information Technology How does it work? The first time a user accesses a Toopher-protected application, he/she is asked to download the free Toopher app or use the SMS text option to “pair” their mobile device with their myUTSA ID The user then completes the two-factor authentication using the Toopher app, SMS option, or pre-generated one-time password
