Multifactor Authentication and secure RDP access to servers

Question

Hello Community!&nbsp;A question as we are rolling-out Azure MFA at one organization in order to enhance security, due to compliance a second factor authentication is required for administrators connecting via RDP to some specific servers.I know that is possible to integrate Azure MFA with a Remote Desktop Gateway Infrastructure but I was wondering if it is possible to integrate Azure MFA to request a second authentication factor while connecting directly to servers for administration purposes using RDP without a third party solution or if there are plans to bring this feature in the future.Any comment or similar experience is welcome!Thanks in advance&nbsp;Cristian

Have you looked at Windows Hello: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/identity-protection/hello-for-business/hello-features#remote-desktop-with-biometrics

Thanks VasilDefinitely sounds like a comprehensive solution in this case, I'll just have to double check the&nbsp;upgrade plan to W10 as a big amount of workstations are still running Windows 7.&nbsp;Best regards.&nbsp;Cristian
