ITS enabled modern authentication in March and is now turning off basic authentication. Modern authentication is a more secure form of identity management.
Modern authentication is supported in versions of Outlook 2016 and higher, and no action is required. Legacy Outlook clients (version 2013 and older) will no longer work after April 26, and you should upgrade.
If you have a university managed computer (ITS provides your support), you can install an updated version of Office through the Software Center. To upgrade to the most recent version of Office on a personal device or if you are supported by IT professionals specific to your area, please contact your local IT department.
For personal devices used for work, you can install Office from the Microsoft 365 portal.
