TU Today

Starting today, NetID and Duo Management is easier 

TU students, faculty, staff, and retirees can now request and manage NetID and Duo account information through a new, modern, and easier-to-use system. All information and access links are still available at towson.edu/netid, but once logged in you’ll see an updated look. This updated NetID Management system is part of a university-wide initiative to improve TU’s digital experience. With the new system you can now:  

• Change your password less frequently. Faculty and staff will only need to change passwords every 6 months, and students once per year. Passphrases are recommended.  
• Manage your info in one place. NetID passwords, Duo info, and Guest NetIDs will continue to be managed through the NetID Management webpage. Ctrl+Alt+Delete won’t be an option for changing passwords.  
• Reset your security info easily and securely. You can now use a one-time passcode sent to an email or mobile phone. 
• Start new employees with an easier process. They’ll activate their NetID account here as part of onboarding. 
• Navigate easier, from any device. The system is mobile-friendly and easier to use.

NOTE: As soon as possible, all TU students, faculty, and staff need to log into the new system and set security Q&A and recovery info so if a password is forgotten or expired, reset details can be sent. 

If you have questions about using the new NetID Management system, contact the OTS Faculty/Staff Help Center or Student Computing Services.
