DUO

Multi Factor Authentication is required to access mySBC and Banner resources.

Two-factor authentication provides a second layer of security to any type of login, requiring extra information or a physical device to log in, in addition to your password. By requiring two different channels of authentication, we can protect your logins from remote attacks that may exploit stolen usernames and passwords. You will need to use the Duo App to access mySBC and Banner. Please follow these instructions to set-up DUO:

Duo has options to set up the following devices:

- Duo Mobile App (for smartphones or tablets)
- Cell Phone (without using the Duo App)
For best results, the Duo App is recommended. The Duo App is currently available for iOS (Apple) devices, Android devices, and Windows devices.

8. Once the app is downloaded on your phone, return to your computer. On the Duo startup screen select I Have Duo Mobile Installed
