Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

Duo Security experienced a 3.3-hour outage affecting VOIP phone call authentication for all US-based deployments, preventing users from completing two-factor authentication via voice calls. Users were advised to use alternative authentication methods including Duo Mobile Push notifications or SMS passcodes during the incident. The service was fully restored with normal VOIP authentication operations resuming after monitoring confirmed sustained success rates.

We are currently investigating an issue causing VOIP authentication failures in all the deployments in the US region and are working to correct the issue as soon as possible. At this time please use alternative authentication methods such as Duo Mobile Push, or SMS passcodes. A list of all other alternative authentication methods can be found here: https://duo.com/docs/policy#authentication-methods Please check back here or subscribe to updates for any changes.
