Configure Additional Authentication Methods for AD FS

 

In order to enable multi-factor authentication (MFA), you must select at least one additional authentication method. By default, in Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) in Windows Server® 2012 R2, you can select Certificate Authentication (in other words, smart card-based authentication) as an additional authentication method.

Note

If you select Certificate Authentication, ensure that the smart card certificates have been provisioned securely and have pin requirements.
