Log In Using the Duo Mobile App

Duo Push works with Duo Mobile, an app you install and activate on your smartphone or tablet. You can download Duo Mobile from your device’s app store.

To Log In with a Push

  1. Select Send Me a Push to send a login request to your smartphone or other mobile device.
  2. Open the Duo Mobile app.
  3. In the app, select Approve to authenticate.

If you select Deny, you will see two options:

  • It seems fraudulent. Choose this option if you suspect someone is trying to access your account.
This will trigger an alert to the IT Security Office. A security engineer will look into whether someone tried to improperly use your identity to log in to a Cornell service.
  • It was a mistake. Choose this option if you selected deny by accident.

For details about installing and using the Duo Mobile app, go to Duo Security's Guide to Two-Factor Authentication and find your type of smartphone.
