How to Enroll Additional 2FA Devices

Enrolling additional devices will help ensure you do not lose access to systems that require 2FA if something happens to your primary device. Additional devices do not have to be a phone, but only devices with a phone number can be used during the initial enrollment. To enroll a backup device:

Step 1

In a web browser go to 2fa.gmu.edu. Click 2FA Account Login in the top right.

Step 2

Log in with your Mason NetID and Patriot Pass Password.

Step 3

Complete the second-factor authentication with your previously enrolled device.

Step 4

On the Patriot Pass Password Home page, click 2FA Account on the left side menu.

Step 5

On the Manage DUO 2FA Account page, click Add a New Device.

Step 5

Select the type of device you are trying to enroll and click CONTINUE.

Step 5

Follow the prompts to enroll your additional device.
