Duo/MFA Free (10 accounts) for home use. (Windows RDP specific)

I’ve decided to introduce MFA for my remote connections to my home network – more security.

1. Create your admin account on Duo.
2. After login, Click on “Billing”
3. Under “Manage Subscription” make sure it’s Duo Free
4. Under “Users” create the user account that logs into your windows computer (I use a local account).
5. Click on “Applications”
6. Click on “Protect an Application”
7. Search for RDP.
8. Select “Microsoft Remote Desktop”
9. Click Protect.
10. There are the 3 keys your need. “Integration”, “Secret”, “API hostname”
11. On your client machine Download and install “dl.duosecurity.com/duo-win-login-latest.exe”
12. use the 3 keys above. Be sure to Enable RDP during the install.
13. That should be it.
