Sureโฆ if you can rely on cloud identity.
A lot of environments can. But ๐บ๐ฎ๐ป๐ – often the most critical ones – ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ป๐ป๐ผ๐ be connected to the internet at all. And that changes everything.
In fully ๐ผ๐ป-๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐บ / ๐ผ๐ณ๐ณ๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ Windows environments, MFA often ends up being based on PKI / smart cards and larger card management system. Nothing wrong with that – but in practice I usually see ๐๐๐ผ ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ป๐:
๐ธ ๐๐ถ๐ด ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ป๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ โ big budget โ full PKI/CMS approach
๐ธ ๐ฆ๐บ๐ฎ๐น๐น ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ป๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ย โ small scope โ a few hardware keys and youโre done
โ But what if youโre stuck somewhere in the ๐บ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐น๐ฒ? Not a huge budget, but also too many accounts to do the manual deployment.
โ Thatโs why I started collaborating with Systola and their solution ๐ฆ๐๐๐๐ผ๐๐ข๐๐. Itโs designed for these scenarios and supports multiple integration points:
โช๏ธ Windows domain logon (interactive + RDP + VPN + network shares + UAC/impersonation)
โช๏ธ RD Gateway / RDP farms (single-step experience, no โdouble promptsโ)
โช๏ธ SaaS / cloud via SAML 2.0 / AD FS
โช๏ธ Entra ID federation with local passwordless identities
