Two-Step Verification - PennKey

Two-Step Verification is a required service that provides an added layer of protection for your PennKey account.

With Two-Step Verification, after you log in with your username and password to Canvas or other PennKey-secured sites, you'll be prompted to verify your identity -- the second step -- using a device in your possession such as a mobile phone or key fob.
