as a piloting tester in the pre-mandatory phase, you’ve finished your testing and want to disable the MFA until it actually becomes mandatory for all users
changing/updating your mobile device (because swapping your MFA from one smartphone to another involves first unenrolling, then re-enrolling in MFA)
Important: Unenrolling from Mediaflux Pocket does NOT enable access to Mediaflux without MFA. Once MFA is mandatory, Mediaflux will be inaccessible without it, regardless of whether you’re enrolled in Mediaflux Pocket or not. Unenrolling merely dissociates your Mediaflux account from the Mediaflux Pocket app on a particular smartphone (usually so that you can reestablish it on a different smartphone).

Why do I have to install yet another MFA app on my phone? Can’t I just use Okta to log in to Mediaflux? Mediaflux is an external product used, but not owned, by the University. The product provider has helped make our Mediaflux use here at UoM much safer by incorporating multifactor authentication into the product for us. But in selecting an optimal tool to facilitate this, the provider has chosen their own new Mediaflux app (Mediaflux Pocket) over any existing MFA tool that the University already uses (such as Okta). While this decision means installing ‘yet another MFA app’ on our phones to safely use Mediaflux, the good news is that the developers are further developing their app to include all sorts of useful features for frequent Mediaflux users, so stay tuned for updates.! |
