We see Duo serving as a core technology building block to enable our zero trust security philosophy. We chose Duo primarily due to three reasons: broadest coverage of devices and applications; great user experience for accessing protected internal tools; and simple implementation and roll-out.

Allan Edwards, Eastern Michigan University

When users are on an out-of-date web browser — and when being out-of-date introduces critical vulnerabilities—we want to be able to make users aware of that. We want to help them to take the [necessary] steps themselves to remediate that vulnerability. This empowers the user to do it directly, rather than creating work that a small IT department doesn’t really have time for in every case-by-case basis.
