Multi-Factor Authentication for Microsoft ADFS 2022/2019/2016/2012r2 (with biometric authentication)

This project can help you to implement multi-factor authentication without requiring any additional provider.

You can download a fully functional solution or modify the source code to build your own solution.

MFA helps secure user sign-ins for on-premise or cloud services beyond just a single password. With MFA, users are required to enter a confirmation code, which is send to their phones, email account or via an authenticator application (Microsoft authentication, Google Authentication)after correctly entering their passwords.

What I Know (password) and What I Hold (device) or What I Am (biometrics) are the keys of MFA.

For example, if you user password is compromised by a hacker, he can’t activate your application (business email) because You have the code that can grant access to the app.

This extension, allow to use second factor with secondary email code transmission, or TOTP code (Time-based One Time Password) compatible with the Google’s (and others) standard.

This extension works with Active Directory or an SQL Server Database for storing secret keys.

• Full sample for Azure MFA (additional configuration tasks and costs implied)
• Developers can easily extend this component for other verification modes (Azure MFA, RSA,…) with the IExternalProvider, ISecretKeyManager interfaces
• Developers can easily extend this component for other storages modes (AD & SQL by default)
• Developers can easily replace the default UI, subclassing BasePresentation or BaseMFAPresentation classes
• Full support for ADFS 2019/2022 themes

Remarks

• Due to security, Developers must sign their Visual Studio solution with their own generated .pfx certificate (see custom development)
• You must deploy the solution on each of your ADFS servers, not on Proxy Servers.
• To work with ADDS, the ADFS Service account must have read and write to users properties (or use the superaccount feature).
• To work with SQL Server Database, you must deploy the database on a separate SQL Server
• Working with ADFS Windows server 2012r2, 2016, 2019 and 2022
