2-Factor Authentication for eRA Modules
eRA is moving to two-factor authentication via login.gov,
meaning that log-in will require something you know (password) and something
you have (a phone or other device). This new log-in method, optional at first
but which may be required later, will be available Wednesday, April 8, 2020 for
users of eRA Commons, Commons Mobile, IAR and ASSIST.
This change,
part of HHS’s Reinvent Grants Management initiative, will help reduce the
burden on principal investigators and research administrators by providing them
the ability to log in to four different grants systems (eRA, Grants.gov,
GrantSolutions and Payment Management System) using the same username and
password via login.gov. Two-factor authentication will help ensure the security
of your personal information.
To help you take advantage of this new option, we have
compiled a number of resources for you:
