Qlik Sense Server 14.20 MFA Login

[tnunes]

HI all, 

I want to configure Qlik to use MFA on login. I tried to find how to do it, without any results. 

Can anyone here know how to implement MFA? 

Thanks

Hello @tnunes ,

There is a tutorial here: Tutorial: Azure AD SSO integration with Qlik Sense Enterprise Client-Managed

For MFA in Azure, you can see here: Configure Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication settings

Hi, 

I my case I don't know if it works.

I have Qlik on premisse, windows machine. (Qlik Sense Server 14.20.8) 

All the Qlik users are users created in windows machine, so they are local machine users. We are not working with AD. 

Thanks

Hello @tnunes ,

Kindly notice that Qlik Sense client managed does not do the authentication of the users, it relies on other components like IdPs (Azure, Auth0...) via diverse protocols like OIDC, SAML... or AD with NTLM. So, at the end it such has an MFA option you will be able to use, otherwise it won't be possible. 

Cheers,

Albert

Hi @Albert_Candelario ,

So, if we are using the MS Windows AD for the Qlik login, we will not be able to have MFA? Only if we have Azure AD or other auth service we will be able?

Best regards

Hello @tnunes ,

If you google it might be solution on the market, all of them are out of Qlik Sense client managed because as mentioned this security layer is on top of the authentication that is not done on Qlik Sense.

You might want to explore options like Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for Active Directory (AD) (miniorange.com)

Usually, IdP has this already integrated, so is much easier to enable such functionality like:
Windows Azure Active Authentication: Multi-Factor for Security and Compliance - Microsoft Community ...

I hope this helps you!

Cheers,

Albert
