𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐓 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐄: IMPLEMENTATION OF MANDATORY 2-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION OF BU STUDENT EMAIL ACCOUNTS
Academic integrity and digital security go hand in hand. To safeguard your academic records, communications, and university resources across platforms like BU LMS, the iBU Portal, and Google Workspace (Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Classroom), Bicol University is implementing an essential security upgrade.
Effective immediately, all Bicol University students are required to enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) on their official BU Email accounts.
This added layer of security introduces an essential secondary verification step beyond your password, significantly reducing the risk of unauthorized access to your account and integrated student portals.
Start Date: August 13, 2026
Deadline: August 26, 2026 (15-day compliance)
We highly recommend completing this setup early to prevent any potential disruptions to your academic activities and access to crucial platforms such as the BU LMS, iBU Portal, and Google Workspace (including Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Classroom).
