Pre-Registration for the “UTokyo Account Identity Verification Service”

Disclaimer: machine translated by DeepL which may contain errors.

The University of Tokyo's Central Bureau for Information and Communication Systems Administration will begin offering the UTokyo Account Identity Confirmation Service, which allows users to use their My Number Card to confirm their identity in situations such as when they have lost their UTokyo Account password or when multi-factor authentication is no longer working properly.

The service allows users to confirm their identity and reset passwords and other information with a simple operation. In addition, if you fail to back up your ECCS Cloud Mail or OneDrive data provided by The University of Tokyo before graduation or other events, you can use this service to rescue your data under some conditions.
Anyone with a UTokyo Account, a My Number card, and a smartphone equipped with a card-reading function can use this service. Since Personal Number itself is not registered in the system, there is no risk of My Number leakage.

However, prior linkage procedures are required to use the system. We urge you to complete the procedures in advance in preparation for any problems that may arise.
