Manufacturing defect causes some M Keys to be replaced
M Keys with serial numbers starting with "E" have a manufacturing defect that will cause them to fail prematurely.
In late August replacement M Keys were sent out to anyone who had activated an "E" M Key. Most users have already activated their replacement M Keys. If you have not yet activated your replacement M Key, please do so as soon as possible by going to www.umn.edu/myaccount.
The M Key contains a battery so the defective "E" M Key should be placed in the battery recycling receptacle in your building.

 M Key - Two Factor Authentication
The University has implemented a two-factor authentication system. Two-factor refers to something you have, and something you know. The most common form of two-factor authentication is an Instant Cash Card. You need both the card (something you have) and the PIN number (something you know) to authenticate and use banking services. At the University we use a two-factor authentication system to access the CUFS financial system on the mainframe. More Information...
