This change applies only to logging in with a special Moodle account.
If you log in using a TUNI account or an account from another university via HAKA authentication, multi-factor authentication already takes place before accessing Moodle and Moodle does not request any further verification.
To improve Moodle’s security, multi-factor authentication (MFA) will be introduced for special Moodle accounts on 18 May 2026. Multi-factor authentication adds an extra verification step to the login process and provides stronger protection for your Moodle user account, for example against phishing attacks.
After 18 May 2026, logging in to TUNI Moodle will require, in addition to your username and password, at least one verification method. By default, Moodle will prompt you to enter a numeric code that is automatically sent to your email after you have entered your username and password. Other supported verification methods are authenticator app in your mobile device and physical security key.
