   • You will be guided through the setup process.  Screenshots of each step are available from Duo Security and in the Two-Step Login Setup Guide

   • Start with the device you plan to use most often with Two-Step Login.

   • The device can be a smartphone, cell phone, tablet, U2F Security key, or landline phone (office, home, etc.). 

   • You will be asked to enter what type of device you are enrolling and, when applicable, the associated phone number.

   • If you are enrolling a smartphone or tablet, you will be prompted to install and activate the Duo Mobile app.

   • For a U2F security key, insert your key in a USB port on your computer.  When prompted, touch the flashing key icon on the UF2 security key.
   • For Touch ID, use a fingerprint reader with MacOS and Chrome. Learn more about Using Apple Touch ID with Duo.

5. Select Add another device to enroll at least one more device.

   • Adding a second device is strongly recommended in case the device you usually use is unavailable, lost, or stolen.

   • Enroll your office phone and, if you have one, your home landline phone.  These are good backup options.

   • You can also return later to Manage Your Two-Step Login to enroll more devices.
