WRDS Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) by Duo Security will launch next week starting on November 28. WRDS has partnered with Duo Security, recognized as an industry standard, and is designed to be a simple and secure method for enhancing security. This is the same Two-Factor Authentication used to access University of Michigan resources. Two-Factor Authentication will be required for all WRDS web logins starting on December 5, 2022.
A second WRDS 2FA phase will apply to SSH access and is scheduled to launch in early 2023.
We encourage all users to review the WRDS 2FA documentation & FAQ for detailed instructions and answers to common questions.
