# MFA

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) provides additional security for your UWin Account.

MFA is required for accessing MFA-protected services and apps, like Microsoft 365, from off-campus networks.

A UWin Account identifier **userid@uwindsor.ca**, is composed of the UWinID **userid** and the domain name **uwindsor.ca**; it is a Microsoft account in the uwindsor.ca domain of the campus' Azure Active Directory tenant.
