Secure RDP Connection to on premise servers using
Azure Multi-Factor authentication
(Step by Step guide)
Http://AzureDummies.com
In this guide we will go through how to implement and secure RDP connection to the
servers using Azure Multifactor authentication.
One of my customers have a server which contains a highly secure data and only
around 6 users have a remote desktop access to that server, the customer need to add
more security layer for accessing this server.
I suggest the customer to use Azure MFA, since it will add a highly secure layer to the
remote desktop access to the server in addition to the low cost of this service.
so let’s start the technical steps to do that, remember that we need to integrate remote
desktop protocol access (RDP) with Azure MFA.
First of all let’s summarize the requirements to implement this scenario:
1- we need an azure account (Azure Tenant) to configure and install the Azure setup, if
you don’t have account you can sign up for one month as trial, for more info follow this

2- integrate RPD protocol with Azure MFA is not supported in windows 2012 R2 (until
the date of this article), which means if you need to integrate RPD with Azure MFA you
need to install windows 2012 and earlier such as windows 2008 R2.
