Beginning July 29, the way the campus community signs in to Microsoft applications is changing. This update is part of KSU’s ongoing efforts to strengthen data security, protect your information, and give you more control over your accounts.

What to expect on July 29:

• You will be automatically signed out of all Microsoft applications, including KSUmail, Teams, and OneDrive.
  • To avoid losing any work, we recommend saving your files on the evening of July 28.
• When you sign back in, the sign in screen will look different, and you will need to click Approve with Cisco Duo.
  • For complete instructions, including screenshots, please review this article: How to Sign In to Microsoft Accounts Beginning July 29.
• Non-Microsoft applications like D2L and Owl Express will not be affected.

Benefits of this change:

• Better protection for KSU data.
• This is the first step on the journey toward a simpler sign in experience and easier password resets in the future.

University Information Technology Services (UITS) will continue to keep you informed and supported at every step along this journey, especially when action is required on your part.
