Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Duo Version Update

A root certificate used by older Duo clients will expire on March 31. Duo Mobile and Duo-integrated applications must be updated to continue authenticating successfully.

If updates are not applied, users may experience:

Failure to update before the certificate expiration may result in authentication outages.
