Multi-factor Authentication (MFA)

Category: Services

Atualizado/Updated: 2023-08-21

Iscte will start adopting multi-factor authentication (MFA), which is a method by which a user confirms their identity through two or more successfully presented proofs. In the case of ISCTE, we consider the username and password to be the first authentication factor. The choice of the second factor will be up to the user, who can choose between:

  • OKTA Verify application (Recommended)
  • Google Authenticator app or other TOTP-compatible app
  • Security Key or Biometric Authenticator

In order to activate the second factor, you must first confirm your identity at https://identity.iscte-iul.pt

Configuration instructions can be found on the SIIC website at https://siic.iscte-iul.pt/en/mfa-2/

The VPN service has been restored at the usual address https://vpn.iscte-iul.pt and access to the service will require MFA configuration.

If you have any questions, you can contact the services via https://iajuda.iscte-iul.pt or by phone at 210 464 010 (or ext. 291000) during the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Colibri/Zoom – How do I get a PRO account?

Category: Videoconference

Colibri, usually works with floating accounts, for all members of the RCTS network. Pro accounts are valid until one hour after the federated login to the platform.

  • If you have already logged in during the day, before starting a new meeting, you should log in again, to ensure that your account is back with the PRO status.
  • Clear your browser cache and cookies, or choose to enter an anonymous (or unregistered) browser window to re-enter your institutional credentials.
  • One way to verify that your account is PRO, during your work session, is to validate that in the ZOOM application bar:
    • the Polls option is active,
    • you can save the meeting in the Cloud;
    • you have the Breakout Rooms option,
    • If not, your account is in BASIC mode, so you must repeat the authentication steps.

Category: Uncategorized

Does cybersecurity have anything to do with me? Every day we have access to a vast set of information of a personal, institutional, banking, health, research, intellectual property, among others.

Are we safe in these steps of our daily life? Do you know that your role in cybersecurity is relevant?

MetaRed Portugal intends to evaluate the level of knowledge on this topic in society and its participation is fundamental. Collaborate by completing the self-assessment questionnaire available here.

MetaRed Portugal is an association of Portuguese public and private higher education institutions, of which Iscte is a part, and which is also open to other public administration entities that develop relevant activity in the field of ICT and in particular in its application in the field of higher education.

Cybersecurity Awareness

Category: Uncategorized

The Iscte- Instituto Universitário de Lisboa has joined the initiative of "Cybersecurity Awareness" in Higher Education Institutions (IES), a collaborative project between the MetaRed Collaborative Network and the Cybersecurity Institute of Spain (INCIBE).

The #ProtegeOTeuCampus (https://www.metared.org/pt/ProtegeOTeuCampus.html) campaign is to raise awareness and inform academic communities of the risks and best practices in cybersecurity. It makes sense for young people to learn in university the best practices to act and defend themselves in this area.
