Invited as a guest speaker by President Ryan Stanley and Vice President Austin Ruff, Griffin also spoke about Tiger Tech, a service that offers technology assistance to students, faculty and staff. According to Griffin, the most common issues Tiger Tech deals with are login and password issues.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOne of the things I wanted to mention, and this is really the reason I\u2019m here, is Duo [Security], the multi-factor identification,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re going to start requiring Duo for students starting Sept. 22nd.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Duo Security, which has been required for FHSU faculty and staff and until Sept. 22 has been optional for students, provides two-factor authentication when logging on to Workday or Blackboard. Users verify their identity on another device, such as a cellphone. Students can enroll in Duo Security and view frequently asked questions on the Technology Services <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhsu.edu\/technology\/duo\/\">website<\/a>.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou may be wondering why we\u2019re now requiring it,\u201d Griffin said. \u201cWe are concerned about your security. You have a great deal of private information on our systems, in particular, Workday. You may have banking information, your social security number, and all kinds of different things.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Griffin, security breaches were fairly significant issues among faculty prior to the requirement of Duo Security. In some instances, bank account information was stolen and paychecks were transferred to different bank accounts.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Griffin emphasized that it is critically important that FHSU gets everybody on Duo as soon as possible.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBesides that, Fort Hays State University has cyber security insurance. That helps protect us in case we have some severe cyber security incident,\u201d Griffin said. \u201cThe provider of that insurance has told us they will most likely require that we have virtually all our users on multi-factor identification, or they will not provide the insurance. So, we\u2019re trying to get ahead of the game just a little bit.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ruff told the senate there would continue to be guest speakers at each meeting to discuss different topics on campus.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other business included seven new senators taking office. The appointments of Treasurer David Schulte, Legislative Affairs Director Ella Burrows, Community Relations Director Emma Day and Director of Communications Jayden Siebert to the executive staff were also confirmed.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Student Government Association meets every Thursday, with their next meeting scheduled for 7:00 p.m. on Sept. 8 in the Black and Gold Room.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BY RAEGAN NEUFELD Following the Technology Services Duo Security requirement, Fort Hays students can expect their private information to be more secure by the end&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":142,"featured_media":40877,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[3398,11],"tags":[655,7960,14226,134,290],"class_list":["post-67010","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-campus-news","category-news","tag-fhsu-student-government-association","tag-news","tag-raegan-neufeld","tag-sga","tag-tmn"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tigermedianet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Student-Government-Association.png?fit=820%2C312&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67010","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/142"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=67010"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67010\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":67012,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67010\/revisions\/67012"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/40877"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=67010"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=67010"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=67010"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
