  #### Two Factor Authentication (2FA) for SSO
11

12
 
13
  SSO has become mandatory for all the network users at IITB.
14
  Before starting to use new SSO based services, everyone needs to register their smartphones for two-factor authentication. Please note this is a one- time activity.
15
  Those who are using two accounts, i.e., one personal and another functional/institutional (e.g., [email protected] and [email protected]) accounts, you need to register for both the accounts.

  **Methods for SSO 2FA registration:**
19
  Computer Centre recommends registering for at least two methods of Two Factor Authentication. So that in case of unavailability of the primary 2FA method, you can use the alternate registered method and will not get locked or barred from using SSO based services.
20
  For example, along with the authenticator app or TOTP based OTP, users can register their mobile number using the same SSO interface for SMS based OTP. This SMS based OTP could be used to login to SSO in case if you lost your phone or facing any software/hardware issue with the smartphone and to repeat the TOTP registration process with a new device.

  By this Computer Centre is not promoting the use of smart devices or not promoting apps from any specific organization or any particular developer. TOTP is a new and secure standard of OTP. Our recommendations of apps or TOTP is only based on ease of use, security, the number of updates pushed by developers, and compatibility with older versions of Android/IOS.

  **SSO & Two Factor Authentication (2FA) related FAQ's**
75
  ##### SSO & 2FA related FAQ's ![](/assets/icons/Plus.svg)
 
 
 
76
  1. **What is 2FA?**
77
  Two/Multi-Factor Authentication (2/MFA) combines two or more independent credentials to gain access to a system. These credentials include something the user knows (e.g., password), something the user has (e.g., token device/smart card/smartphone) or something the user is (e.g., biometric verification).
78
  The goal of 2FA is to create a multi-layered approach that makes it difficult for any unauthorized person to gain access to a system. If one factor is compromised, such as a password, the attacker will still need the other factor, for example, a smartphone in order to gain access to the system.
 
 
 
79
  2. **Do I need to enroll or register in 2FA for accessing IT Services?**
80
  All IITB faculty, staff, students, workers, and others with an active appointment at and with a valid LDAP ID need to enroll in CC'S SSO 2FA.
 
 
 
81
  3. **What if I don't enroll in 2FA?**
82
  You will not be able to access any web applications using your LDAP Login ID until you've enrolled. To learn how to register in 2FA now, refer the above registration tab
 
 
 
83
  4. **What if I uninstalled the Google/Microsoft Authenticator Mobile app?**
84
  If you have registered an alternate 2FA method then, you can authorize your logins using those methods and after login you can deregister the old device.
85
  If the smartphone is the only option, then kindly contact CC's helpdesk. We will help you out with the deregistration of your old device. Also, soon we will provide a dedicated interface on CC's website for this.
 
 
 
86
  5. **What if I am already using the Google/Microsoft Authenticator Mobile app for another account?**
87
  Suppose you are already using Google/Microsoft authenticator app to access other third-party services like Microsoft, Google, Facebook, etc. You can still use the same app to receive OTP related to your Login.
 
 
 
88
  6. **Help, I've Lost or Broken My Phone, and Now I Can't log in?**
89
  If you have registered an alternate 2FA method then, you can authorize your logins using those methods. If you do not have access to your alternative method, and your only 2FA device was lost, broken, stolen, etc., please contact the CC's Helpdesk either by raising a ticket on <https://help- cc.iitb.ac.in> or by calling our helpdesk number 2677.

  7. **How does changing my SIM card, phone, and/or phone number affect the Google/Microsoft Authenticator Mobile app?**
91
  **Changing the SIM Card** : If you change your SIM card and do not change your phone number, the Google / Microsoft authenticator Mobile app, IITB SSO app, and SMS options should continue to remain functional for your phone. No action should be required on your part.
92
  **Changing Phone** : If you change your phone but keep the same phone number, you will need to do the following to activate the Google / Microsoft Authenticator app on the new phone: In case if you have registered for an alternate 2FA method.

103
  9. **What if I don't have/want to use my smartphone?**
104
  If you prefer not to use your smartphone, or you don't own a compatible device, don't worry: There are alternatives. You can choose to enroll and receive a text message on your cell phone. But please note that you will not be able to Login in case of unavailability of GSM/CDMA network and in a matter of unavailability of SMS API Service.
105
  Currently, there is an upper limit on number of SMS used for OTP by per user per month. (30SMS/user/month)

  10. **What if I changed my user ID from roll/employee number to something else?**
107
  We have already taken care of all the things necessary to handle this change. Any kind of additional action is not required from user side. Even there is no need to new registration for Time-based OTP (authenticator app).
108
  Every 6 hours (00, 06, 12, 18 hours), this change will also getting pushed to G Suite and Office365. So users may face temporary unavailability of G Suite or Office365 services between this period after change of his/her user id.
 
 
 
109
  11. **What is the session / logout period.**
110
  SSO doesn’t control or enforce other session timeout for application. Each application is having its own timeout period. For e.g. internet.iitb is having timeout of 30 minutes. G Suite or Office365 has timeout period of more than a year.
111
  SSO’s itself having its own timeout of 15 minutes if you have not checked the check box called “Remember me”. If you have checked this “remember me” check box then the timeout of SSO will be of 15 days. During this period SSO will not ask your credentials and OTP.
 
 
 
112
  12. **Use of multiple accounts with IITB SSO.**
113
  SSO support simultaneous login with multiple accounts. But it also depend on each and every application. All applications doesn’t support multi-sessions login or some application only works on IP address level like internet.iitb.
114
  Applications like Google Drive, Google Meet, Microsoft One Drive support multiple logins in a same browser. You just need to switch the account from that application. But applications like webmail who doesn’t support multiple logins, you just need to click on logout button/link then our SSO will provide you the option to switch the account.
 
 
 
115
  13. **Help! I have registerd for SMS based authentication but not receiving SMS**
116
  Please note each user can avail a maximum of 30 SMS per month for OTP. Computer Centre does not recommend using SMS based OTP as your Primary 2FA service.
117
  If you have registered an alternate 2FA method then, you can authorize your logins using those methods.
118
  If SMS based OTP is the only option, then kindly contact CC's helpdesk. We will help you out with the deregistration of your old device. Also, soon we will provide a dedicated interface on CC's website for this.
 
 
 
119
  14. **Use of a shared account with SSO**
120
  There are some functionary or institutional accounts that might need to be used by more than one person. In such cases doing 2-factor authentications is a bit challenging. At the same time, 2FA is compulsory for all the SSO based services. The 2FA methods like Time-based and SMS based OTP do not support sharing. As of now, there are two solutions for this, as given below.
121
  * **The use of hardware-based 2FA method:** To do a hardware-based 2FA, you require a USB security key that the user/department/section/centers need to purchase. Security keys can be purchased online or through any computer/IT products vendor. While buying these keys, Please make sure that the key should be webauthn/FIDO2 certified.

  #### Two Factor Authentication (2FA) for SSO
 
8
 
9
  SSO has become mandatory for all the network users at IITB.
10
  Before starting to use new SSO based services, everyone needs to register their smartphones for two-factor authentication. Please note this is a one- time activity.
11
  Those who are using two accounts, i.e., one personal and another functional/institutional (e.g., [email protected] and [email protected]) accounts, you need to register for both the accounts.
12
 
13
 
14
+
15
  **Methods for SSO 2FA registration:**
16
  Computer Centre recommends registering for at least two methods of Two Factor Authentication. So that in case of unavailability of the primary 2FA method, you can use the alternate registered method and will not get locked or barred from using SSO based services.
17
  For example, along with the authenticator app or TOTP based OTP, users can register their mobile number using the same SSO interface for SMS based OTP. This SMS based OTP could be used to login to SSO in case if you lost your phone or facing any software/hardware issue with the smartphone and to repeat the TOTP registration process with a new device.
 
21
  Computer Centre recommends using TOTP Authenticator app-based OTP. Users are free to use any app which supports the TOTP protocol. Apps like Duo Mobile, Google Authenticator, and Microsoft Authenticator are suitable and recommended options.
22
  By this Computer Centre is not promoting the use of smart devices or not promoting apps from any specific organization or any particular developer. TOTP is a new and secure standard of OTP. Our recommendations of apps or TOTP is only based on ease of use, security, the number of updates pushed by developers, and compatibility with older versions of Android/IOS.
23
  Note: With “Duo Mobile” and “Microsoft Authenticator, users can backup the device registration to their personal Gmail or Microsoft/outlook account. Users can restore the device registration quickly from the cloud in case of an issue with your smartphone.

  CC'S SSO 2FA now supports the use of security keys. SSO uses the WebAuthn authentication standards to interact with your security keys. You may also see WebAuthn referred to as "FIDO2". To use a security key with SSO, you must use the following:
66
  * A supported browser (Chrome 70, Firefox 60, Safari 13 or Microsoft Edge 79 or later). * An available USB port and supported USB security key.
67
  Support for authentication is limited to web applications that use CC'S Single Sign-On (SSO). If you want to buy a new key or already have a security key that makes sure it supports FIDO2 standards.

  **SSO & Two Factor Authentication (2FA) related FAQ's**
85
  ##### SSO & 2FA related FAQ's ![](/assets/icons/Plus.svg)
86
+
87
+
88
+
89
  1. **What is 2FA?**
90
  Two/Multi-Factor Authentication (2/MFA) combines two or more independent credentials to gain access to a system. These credentials include something the user knows (e.g., password), something the user has (e.g., token device/smart card/smartphone) or something the user is (e.g., biometric verification).
91
  The goal of 2FA is to create a multi-layered approach that makes it difficult for any unauthorized person to gain access to a system. If one factor is compromised, such as a password, the attacker will still need the other factor, for example, a smartphone in order to gain access to the system.
92
+
93
+
94
+
95
  2. **Do I need to enroll or register in 2FA for accessing IT Services?**
96
  All IITB faculty, staff, students, workers, and others with an active appointment at and with a valid LDAP ID need to enroll in CC'S SSO 2FA.

  7. **How does changing my SIM card, phone, and/or phone number affect the Google/Microsoft Authenticator Mobile app?**
122
  **Changing the SIM Card** : If you change your SIM card and do not change your phone number, the Google / Microsoft authenticator Mobile app, IITB SSO app, and SMS options should continue to remain functional for your phone. No action should be required on your part.
123
  **Changing Phone** : If you change your phone but keep the same phone number, you will need to do the following to activate the Google / Microsoft Authenticator app on the new phone: In case if you have registered for an alternate 2FA method.

131
  8. **Invalid OTP Issue**
132
  For two factor authentication (2FA) registration, the main requirement is the correct date and time. So we kindly request you to check the date and time setting of your mobile device.
133
  **Update Date & Time on iOS device**
134
  1. From your home screen navigate to Settings 2. Tap **General** 3. Tap **Date & Time** 4. Make sure that the option **Set Automatically** is turned on 5. If this option is turned off, check that the correct Date, Time and Time Zone are selected

137
+
138
+
139
+
140
  9. **What if I don't have/want to use my smartphone?**
141
  If you prefer not to use your smartphone, or you don't own a compatible device, don't worry: There are alternatives. You can choose to enroll and receive a text message on your cell phone. But please note that you will not be able to Login in case of unavailability of GSM/CDMA network and in a matter of unavailability of SMS API Service.
142
  Currently, there is an upper limit on number of SMS used for OTP by per user per month. (30SMS/user/month)
143
+
144
+
145
+
146
  10. **What if I changed my user ID from roll/employee number to something else?**
147
  We have already taken care of all the things necessary to handle this change. Any kind of additional action is not required from user side. Even there is no need to new registration for Time-based OTP (authenticator app).
148
  Every 6 hours (00, 06, 12, 18 hours), this change will also getting pushed to G Suite and Office365. So users may face temporary unavailability of G Suite or Office365 services between this period after change of his/her user id.
149
+
150
+
151
+
152
  11. **What is the session / logout period.**
153
  SSO doesn’t control or enforce other session timeout for application. Each application is having its own timeout period. For e.g. internet.iitb is having timeout of 30 minutes. G Suite or Office365 has timeout period of more than a year.
154
  SSO’s itself having its own timeout of 15 minutes if you have not checked the check box called “Remember me”. If you have checked this “remember me” check box then the timeout of SSO will be of 15 days. During this period SSO will not ask your credentials and OTP.
155
+
156
+
157
+
158
  12. **Use of multiple accounts with IITB SSO.**
159
  SSO support simultaneous login with multiple accounts. But it also depend on each and every application. All applications doesn’t support multi-sessions login or some application only works on IP address level like internet.iitb.
160
  Applications like Google Drive, Google Meet, Microsoft One Drive support multiple logins in a same browser. You just need to switch the account from that application. But applications like webmail who doesn’t support multiple logins, you just need to click on logout button/link then our SSO will provide you the option to switch the account.
161
+
162
+
163
+
164
  13. **Help! I have registerd for SMS based authentication but not receiving SMS**
165
  Please note each user can avail a maximum of 30 SMS per month for OTP. Computer Centre does not recommend using SMS based OTP as your Primary 2FA service.
166
  If you have registered an alternate 2FA method then, you can authorize your logins using those methods.
167
  If SMS based OTP is the only option, then kindly contact CC's helpdesk. We will help you out with the deregistration of your old device. Also, soon we will provide a dedicated interface on CC's website for this.
168
+
169
+
170
+
171
  14. **Use of a shared account with SSO**
172
  There are some functionary or institutional accounts that might need to be used by more than one person. In such cases doing 2-factor authentications is a bit challenging. At the same time, 2FA is compulsory for all the SSO based services. The 2FA methods like Time-based and SMS based OTP do not support sharing. As of now, there are two solutions for this, as given below.
173
  * **The use of hardware-based 2FA method:** To do a hardware-based 2FA, you require a USB security key that the user/department/section/centers need to purchase. Security keys can be purchased online or through any computer/IT products vendor. While buying these keys, Please make sure that the key should be webauthn/FIDO2 certified.
 
175
  * **The use of Password-less authentication:** To use this method, the primary owner of the shared account must have registered for Time based or SMS based OTP. Rest all user needs to install the “IITB SSO” app on their smartphone. The detailed step-wise how-to for this is available on this page under the title "Passwordless Authentication."
