    MFA for Windows domain?

    in Business and Enterprise IT

    Posted

    I have a client that is involved with financial services and is expanding. They're looking to tighten security and I've been tasked with looking at multifactor auth for login. Does anyone have experience with any of these? Something that uses Google authenticator or a Yubikey would be ideal for them. Minimal hardware investment would be key, as most of the sites don't have anyone there that can really do much technically beyond plugging in a flash drive. We've contracted other companies to plug in copiers before; it's that bad. Something that requires little training would be perfect. Anything that we do will need some training and we're good with that, but some of the users are a little confused by change... I've looked at Rohos so far. What are other options?

    It's a Windows Domain. 12R2. All clients are 7/8.1/10.

    Can anyone offer a bit of assistance?

    Thanks!

    I don't know that scrubbing will be an option. That would, of course, be the BEST plan of action, but the client may not be down for it. I'm sure you know clients don't always go for things that are in their best interest. What we're looking to do is get as much info as possible. There may be nothing nefarious, but we need to do our due diligence. We need to get as much of a map of the location as we possibly can. It's not so much that we specifically distrust the current setup. I just don't know, which makes me wary.

    I'll look into both tools. We can get hands-on with everything if need be, but if we can pop a tool on a system and do a scan, it's going to be much easier. They have ~50 desktops and laptops and a half dozen or so servers. Automated is the way to go if possible.

    Thanks, Cooper.

    Greetings, all. I work for an MSP and we may be taking over for a rather aggressive IT manager. The potential client is interested in cost savings and better service overall. We feel he may have some backdoors installed on various sytems and we're trying to figure out how best to suss them out as much as possible. We're looking at Spiceworks for a quick and dirty map of things, but that won't really give us info on local admin accounts, etc. if I remember correctly.

    What we're looking for is a tool or some combination of tools to make our lives easier with the scan. I don't care about platform and I'm fine with paying. Free and Windows-based would be best, though. ;)

    Ah! Thanks. Is this a file that I could use in Recovery Mode? (I think that's what you guys call it; when you can connect via 192.168.1.1) I can drop into that.

    And even if it's a day 1 bug, I'm the only one bitching about it right now. If it was more widespread, there are firmware fixes to fix these things. I'm just unlucky right now. Ain't no thang.

    Seb, is there anything that I can get to you so you can debug it? I'm happy to help with whatever I can. I'd prefer this not have happened, but it is what it is, if I can get you some sort of info so the possibility of this happening to someone else is lessened, I'd love to.

    Thanks for the help and all the info.

    I am quite intrigued by this. How did you have it working as a generic AP? Did you have access to it at some point?

    Those lights that you see mean that it is ready to be talked to over ethernet. If that doesn't work though, I suggest you try connecting to it's WiFi AP and trying again from there. This is very odd behavior.

    Fixable though. Let's figure out what went wrong first.

    Thankfully the device is practically unbrickable. I am writing up instructions for our website on how to fix it now.

    Best,

    Definitely jinxed! Devices will connect to it via Pinapple_blah (I don't remember the name. Doesn't matter). It's not that the device is curently broken, per se, I just can't get to the admin page for it via wired or wireless.
