Getting started

1 - Enroll into DUO for multi-factor authentication

DUO for Multi-Factor Authentication adds extra security by asking you for another piece of information via your cell phone, tablet or land line.

Please note, UCLA has two DUO accounts: UCLA Health Sciences IT for Mednet accounts and UCLA Logon for Bruin Online (BOL) accounts. 

For UCLA DUO: Go to How to Activate UCLA Logon MFA

Off Site and away from UCLA Health Secure Wi-Fi:  If you are not connected to the UCLA Health network, call Customer Care at 310-267-CARE (2273) before attempting to create a Mednet password, enroll in coursework or log into Mednet email because DUO must be established first. Specialists are available 24/7 to enroll you in Duo.  Please be aware that Customer Care Specialists will confirm your identity prior to enrolling you into Duo.

On UCLA Health Network or connected to UCLA Health Secure Wi-Fi:  If you are connected through the UCLA Health network, you can self-enroll into Duo and manage your device(s) through the Multi-Factor Authentication Self Enrollment Portal.

Note: On Network means that you are connected to UCLA Health Secure Wi-Fi, using a computer workstation physically connected at a UCLA Health facility, or connected by Global Protect VPN when offsite.

2 - Create your Mednet account password

You need to change your password for Mednet account from the temporary password provided to you. 

If you do not have your temporary password, please call Customer Care at (310) 267-CARE (2273).  Specialists are available 24/7 to assist you.  Please be aware that Customer Care Specialists will confirm your identity prior to enrolling you into Duo and/or providing you a temporary password.
