Zoom Two-Factor Authentication
1. Introduction
From the perspective of preventing unauthorized access, our university is also introducing two-factor
authentication. Please set it up referring to the setup instructions on the Zoom profile page.
For those who log in to Zoom using their Google account, the following settings are not necessary.
Please note that a mobile phone or smartphone capable of receiving short messages is required for Zoom's
two-factor authentication.
If you do not have a device capable of receiving short messages, please be aware that you cannot use
two-factor authentication.
