How to download Authy 

In order to enable and use MFA, you must download and create an account with Authy.

If you haven’t already downloaded Authy, please download it to any device(s) that you will have access to when logging into UNet. After April 6, every time you log into UNet, you will need to use a device with Authy to provide a second login credential.

You must also verify your phone number in Authy to be able to log into UNet. For full instructions, including short instructional videos on how to download and register Authy, please click here.
