titleWhat if I receive a prompt for authentication that I did not initiate?

If you are not attempting to log into an RRU resource when you receive the prompt to authenticate. Deny or ignore the request. This means the MFA is working and that some else is trying to access your account.

In some cases the perpetrator might “bomb” you with repeated requests to “authenticate” hoping that out of frustration, or by accident, you might approve the request. If this happens please put your phone aside, or on silent, and ignore the requests. Please notify the Contact the RRU Help Desk so we can track these instances.
