Is Okta going to replace ClearLogin?
Yes, we are working to migrate all Kean applications to Okta. After the pilot phase using FreshService, we will migrate all applications currently on ClearLogin to Okta.
Do I have to use MFA?
Yes. Higher education institutions are common targets for opportunistic and nation-state attackers because of the wide variety of personal and research data available. The most common attack vector is compromised accounts as a result of phishing campaigns. These compromised accounts can grant threat actors access to all of the data to which the account is entitled. Kean is not immune to phishing campaigns and we continue to see an increase in the sophistication of these attacks. The addition of MFA will help secure access to Kean resources by adding an additional layer of protection.
