Hello:

I would like to setup an MFA on my laptop. So whenever tries to RDP or SSH into it, they will be prompted with authentication. My laptop is entra-joined and i have setup an access policy but when i tried to rdp into it, it did not prompt me to do the authentication.

Please advise.

Thank you

Jay

    Thank you for posting this in Microsoft Q&A.

    As I understand you want MFA to be prompted whenever user tries to RDP to Entra joined device.

    This feature is not available for now. RDP client doesn't support MFA. RDP client on Windows doesn't give a layout for MFA prompt.

    However, you can submit this feedback in our Azure feedback portal. This platform is monitored by our PM's and they will be able to provide more details on this feature if this is planned for upcoming changes.
