Overview 

On Tuesday, June 6, 2023, Information Technology Services (ITS) will modify the SF State Single Sign-On (SSO) service to improve login security and reliability. This change will modernize the two-factor authentication (2FA) prompt and make the login experience consistent with the web version of Outlook.

What To Expect 

Users will be presented with a new login screen matching the one currently available on the web version of Outlook. Going forward, all SF State online resources, including email, Gateway, Zoom, DocuSign, and Canvas, will have a consistent login experience. Your SF State login (e.g., 900000000@sfsu.edu) and password will remain the same.

All SF State IT services will remain operational without any service disruption.
