Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for Education

Last updated on September 1, 2025

Secure Academic Data With MFA for Education

Educational institutions have gone through massive digitalization. From digital learning tools through online student communities to student management systems, a big part of education happens on the web. Consequently, at least two challenges arise. First, to ensure increased security for students, teachers, and university staff who access data. Second, devise a safe yet comfortable way of mitigating the risks associated with BYOD (Bring Your Own Device).

Rublon solves the first challenge to provide high security and controlled access to data by enabling robust multi-factor authentication (MFA) for Education and powerful access policies. Rublon also resolves the challenge of BYOD security by introducing Rublon Authenticator and Rublon Admin Console.

Mitigate BYOD Risks

Rublon mitigates the risks associated with BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) by introducing the free-to-use Rublon Authenticator. Rublon Authenticator is a mobile app that you can install on your mobile device and use for multi-factor authentication. Both Android and iOS smartphones are supported.

Moreover, Rublon allows you to supervise and control users and devices used for authentication in the powerful Rublon Admin Console. You can define separate policies for each application and manage your users.

Every Application

Rublon can be integrated with almost every web, cloud, and on-premise application, VPN, server, and admin tool. Protect your custom applications using the Rublon API, which comes with SDKs for popular programming languages.

Rublon’s integration possibilities make it easy to enable MFA for remote access via VPN, logins to cloud and on-premise applications, custom software, Linux servers, and applications using directory services (e.g. Active Directory, OpenLDAP).

Reduce GDPR Risk

Use Rublon to protect applications that process personal data and reduce your GDPR risk. When a breach occurs, regulators take into account if two-factor authentication was used to protect the personal data of users.

Deploying two-factor authentication significantly improves your system’s security and reduces GDPR risk.

Easy for Users

Rublon makes multi-factor authentication easy. The Rublon Authenticator mobile app enables users to authenticate with one tap using Mobile Push or use Mobile Passcode if their mobile devices are offline. Rublon’s support for FIDO U2F security keys like YubiKey lifts security to the highest level and further improves user experience.

Rublon enrolls users automatically during their first login. Users are identified by their username during each consecutive protected login.

Quick to Deploy

Rublon is a cloud-based service that comes with a mobile app for the best usability. Using Rublon, you can get MFA running within minutes without having to buy or install hardware.

Integrate your first application using one of our ready-to-go plugins and modules.

Our multilingual support team is happy to quickly respond if questions arise.
