Multi-factor authentication settings
- When accessing Webmail or Integrated Authentication System user settings from off-campus, two-step authentication using multi-factor authentication is required in addition to "User ID" and "password". The following describes the preconfiguration method for using multi-factor authentication.
Three types of multi-factor authentication are available (either (1) OTP e-mail transmission, (2) TOTP, or (3) matrix code), so please use the one you are most comfortable with.
1 One Time Password (OTP) Usage Setting
- One-time passwords (OTP) are one-time passwords that are issued each time a user logs in to the Unified Authentication System.
Please log in to the Unified Authentication System user settings with your "User ID" and "Password".

Select [Multi-factor authentication settings (OTP setting)] from the side menu.
Leave “OTP disable/enable” as it is by default Use(enable).Enter an email address other than @chiba-u.jp to “Where to send OTP” and save it to your email address.
Please register this e-mail address as one that you can open immediately that you normally use. - 保存が完了したら、ログアウトします。
