Configure Okta org

Before installing the Okta credential provider for Windows, you must :

• Define a group for the end users who will authenticate RDP sign ins.
• Specify MFA authenticators, including the authenticator to use for RDP sign in.
• Add and configure the Microsoft RDP (MFA) app.

1. Define groups the will be used to authenticate:
   Sign in to your Okta tenant as an administrator.
   In the Admin Console, go to DirectoryGroups.
   Click Add Group.
   Complete the fields in the Add group dialog and click Save.
   Add people to the group. See Users, groups, and profiles.
2. Specify authentication:
   
   In the Admin Console, go to SecurityAuthenticators.

   From the Add Authenticator dialog, select an authenticator. For example, Okta Verify.

   Configure factor-specific settings

   Okta recommends that—as a minimum—you add Okta Verify as an authenticator.

   Some authenticators have more settings that you can configure by clicking ActionsEdit.
