CLASSE Duo with ScreenConnect: Tuesday, 04-Apr-2023

Since March 2022, CLASSE Duo has been available for ScreenConnect on an opt-in basis. As part of our ongoing effort to improve cybersecurity, beginning on Tuesday, 04-Apr-2023, CLASSE Duo will be required for all ScreenConnect logins. Please note that ScreenConnect does not support phone calls, only Duo Push via the mobile app. If you do not have access to a phone or tablet to run the Duo app, or if you have any questions or concerns about this change, please submit a ServiceRequest.

CLASSE Duo Passcodes to be Disabled: Tuesday, 04-Apr-2023

Beginning on Tuesday, 04-Apr-2023, the passcode authentication method will no longer be available for CLASSE Duo. CIT made a similar change to Cornell Duo last December. If you are a regular user of Duo Mobile App passcodes, please plan to switch to one of the available alternatives (such as Duo push, Duo phone callback) before Tuesday, 04-Apr-2023. If you have any questions or concerns about this change, please submit a ServiceRequest.

General network and server maintenance will occur every Tuesday from 12:00 noon to 2:00 PM. The CLASSE-IT group will always announce any expected disruptions in our NewsLetter and via CLASSE-IT-NEWS-L, but with the size and complexity of our network there is always the potential for something to go wrong. We will do our best to contain all network maintenance and planned outages to Tuesdays from 12:00 noon to 2:00 PM.

Unless other arrangements have been made, CLASSE-managed Windows systems may be updated and rebooted on Tuesday morning at 2:00 AM, so please avoid critical or lengthy operations at that time. For more details, please see SystemExpectations.
