Practitioner Notes

This enhancement requires MFA for local access to non-privileged accounts — standard users logging in locally also need multi-factor authentication.

Example 1: Deploy Windows Hello for Business across all workstations so that even standard users must authenticate with PIN plus facial recognition or fingerprint at the keyboard.

Example 2: Require smart card (CAC/PIV) authentication for all users logging in to workstations connected to your organization's domain.
