Two-factor authentication for Office 365

As part of our commitment to continually improving our services, the two-factor authentication (2FA) –“DUO Security application” is enabled for all Office 365 services outside the KAUST campus, effective Thursday, August 30, 2018

If you are on campus or using a VPN outside campus, you will be logged in automatically. However, if you are accessing Office 365 off campus without a VPN, please follow the instructions below to enable the 2FA.

  1. Login to https://portal.office.com using your KAUST credentials.
  2. Sign-in using your KAUST email i.e. xxxx@kaust.edu.sa. On the Waseet login page, type your username and password. You will be redirected to the DUO (2FA) page.
  3. Select the device you registered and send a push message or enter the code for your DUO mobile app.
  4. You will be logged in to the Office 365 homepage.
