Traditional Prompt vs. Universal Prompt
What do you need to do?
You do not have to do anything to initiate this change; it will happen automatically.
Duo Traditional Prompt
The traditional prompt is currently used by VCU systems, as shown in the image below. It offers familiar green-button options of “Send Me a Push” and “Enter a Passcode.
Duo Universal Prompt
The universal prompt differs from the traditional prompt in appearance and behavior. The first time you use the new prompt, Duo chooses the most secure authentication method from those you have set up. If you use the Duo Push Method, you will see an image below and will be asked to enter the verification code in the Duo Mobile app.
Enter the code in the Duo Mobile App to verify (as shown in the image below)
