For remote access and cloud, first determine whether the remote access solution or cloud provider has integrates with the free solutions offered through Microsoft or GSuite. If not, they will need to identify an MFA tool that integrates with their software or hardware, such as DUO or Okta. Most cloud software supports a free MFA solution that just need to be turned on, especially software being used to store sensitive data (such as Electronic Medical Records software and HR software). Integration with enterprise MFA solutions will be dependent on the cloud provider’s ability to integrate with other technologies.
For administrator accounts, you should determine if there are any free MFA solutions available for the admin credentials. This however is less likely, especially if they are a hybrid, on- premise and cloud environment, and they may need to identify an MFA solution such as DUO or Okta. Some solutions can integrate directly into Active Directory to support enterprise wide MFA for administrator accounts. For environments with fewer systems, MFA can be enforced on a system by system basis.
