How to enable 2FA on CQUniversity

← CQUniversity overview Supported

CQUniversity supports app-based two-factor authentication (2FA). Turning it on adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone can't unlock your CQUniversity account.

Step-by-step setup

1
Sign in to CQUniversity and open your CQUniversity account security settings.
2
Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.
Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.
3
Scan the QR code with MS Authenticator App.
Open MS Authenticator App, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code CQUniversity displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.
4
Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.
Type the code MS Authenticator App generates to verify and link your CQUniversity account.
5
Save your backup codes.
Store the recovery codes CQUniversity gives you somewhere safe — you'll need them if you lose your phone.
