Multi-factor authentication

Parallels RAS allows you to use multi-factor authentication for access control. When multi-factor authentication is used, users will have to authenticate through two successive stages to get the application list. While the first level will always use native authentication (Active Directory / LDAP), the second level can use one of the following solutions:

• RADIUS
  • Azure MFA (RADIUS)
  • Duo (RADIUS)
  • FortiAuthenticator (RADIUS)
  • TekRADIUS
  • RADIUS
• TOTP
  • Google Authenticator
  • Microsoft Authenticator
  • TOTP (Time-based one-time password)
• Deepnet
• SafeNet

Multi-factor authentication is more secure because instead of using a standard user name and password, it uses a static user name and a one-time password generated by a token.
