Two-Factor Authentication Required for AURA

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA/DUO) is now required across all AURA applications. Any user who does not have 2FA enabled will receive an error message informing them to enable 2FA. If you have not yet registered for 2FA, please do so at cnet.uchicago.edu/2FA.

If you have any questions about 2FA or have issues registering for 2FA authentication, please contact IT Services at itservices@uchicago.edu or 773.702.5800.

If you’ve successfully registered for 2FA and have requested access for AURA, and still cannot access AURA, please contact AURA Help and include any error message you see when attempting to log in.
