Body
Issue
The campus member failed to successfully authenticate several times and is now locked out of Duo.
Environment
Application/Host/Website: DUO 2-Factor Authentication
Resolution
The lock will lift on its own in approximately 30 minutes. Help Desk Central technicians can also lift the lock:
- Verify the campus member's identity.
- Treat this with the same level of security as Duo bypass codes - if the campus member is a staff or faculty, you MUST verify their identity visually. Do NOT unlock the campus member's Duo account if they are communicating over email or chat.
- Log into Neoweb and navigate to Manage Duo Settings
- Click Change to Active
- If this option is not available, they are not actually locked out.
- Ensure the campus member is able to authenticate successfully. More troubleshooting may be needed depending on the reason they were locked out in the first place.
