Thanks for the suggestion. I guess this will work, but we have to get the AAD license here. Can't we just use normal MFA and achieve MFA while we are logging into WVD?

You can set up MFA in the portal and when users access the WVD infrastructure they will be asked to work with MFA. The advantage with a conditional access policy is that you can set up MFA explicitly for WVD.

I hope this will help. Regards Tom Wechslergadmin285
