How To Setup Multi-Factor Authentication for Your SPC Account

WHAT IS MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION (MFA)?

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a way of verifying that people logging into our systems are indeed the people we think they are. In these times when malicious and phishing attacks are a daily occurrence, MFA provides a way to limit the impact of these attacks and help ensure that only authorized people are accessing our systems.

MFA is a security enhancement that requires two different pieces of identity evidence for system access. The two pieces of evidence must be something you know (user ID and password), something you have (smart card, phone, computer, etc.), or something you are (fingerprint, etc.).

MFA is quite simple. In fact, you probably already use it in some form. For example, you have used MFA if you have:

• swiped your bank card at the ATM and then entered your PIN (personal ID number).

• logged into a website that sent a numeric code to your phone, which you then entered to gain access to your account.

We recommend that you watch this helpful video that will help guide you through the registration process:

There Are Two Methods to Receive Your Security Code

1. When you visit the college website, www.spcollege.edu, you will click on Titans Login at the top right-hand corner of the page

4. Click NEXT.

5. Once you've clicked Next, you will receive a test code to that phone number. You will enter the number you received into the 'Enter Code' field.

6. Once you've entered the code correctly, you will receive a message stating that you've registered your phone number successfully.

7. You will now receive your codes via text when logging into your student account on an outside network. While you are on an SPC Campus, Multi-Factor Authentication is not required and should not prompt you to enter a security code.

The Florida Abuse Hotline accepts reports 24 hours a day and 7 days a week of known or suspected child abuse, neglect, or abandonment and reports of known or suspected abuse, neglect, or exploitation of a vulnerable adult.  If you suspect or know of a child or adult that is in immediate danger, call 911 .

Florida law requires any individual who suspects that a child has been abused by any person to report that to the Florida Abuse Hotline. Any allegations a child was abused or neglected by a caregiver will be investigated by the Department of Children and Families, while allegations of child abuse by someone other than a caregiver will be accepted at the Hotline and immediately electronically transferred to the appropriate local law enforcement agency where the child lives.

Penalties for those who suspect a child is being abused but fail to report it have been increased from a misdemeanor to a felony. Financial penalties also have increased.
