This feature is only available for Devolutions Server, Microsoft Azure SQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and SQLite data sources.
Multifactor authentication (MFA) identifies users by at least two different components: something that the user knows (often a password) and something that the user possesses (e.g., a validation code sent to a mobile device). If one of the components is missing or supplied incorrectly, the user's identity is not established with sufficient certainty and access to the data source will remain blocked.
MFA is set at the data source level, except in Devolutions Server, where it is set on the user. Remote Desktop Manager supports Authenticator (TOTP), Yubikey, and Duo.
