As of May, 2016, JHU's Central IT is beginning to roll-out new security protection measures for several of JHU's services in the form of the JHU myIT Multi-factor Authentication (MFA). For example, both your online JHU W2 and Employee Self Service (ESS) in MyJH use it. ("Two factor authentication" is a type of MFA you might have heard of before.)
The new JHU VPN system from JHU will require MFA as well.
We will see more and more JHU sites/services requiring MFA, and you will need to configure your MFA access.
For more details on JHU's implementation of MFA and and instructions on how to configure and use it, please visit WSE IT's documentation on the subject at:
JHU also has a page discussing MFA (including instructions) at:
NOTE: If you have any issues with setting up Multi-factor authentication, you should contact JHU IT's support helpdesk by phone at 410-516-HELP.
