Amazon WorkSpaces Adds Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Support PCoIP Zero Clients

Posted on: Oct 27, 2017

Amazon WorkSpaces now supports multi-factor authentication when users access their WorkSpaces from PCoIP Zero Clients running the PCOIP firmware version 6.0.0 (or newer). This allows administrators to require an additional factor of authentication when users are accessing their WorkSpaces from a PCoIP Zero Client device. This update also removes the need to use the PCoIP Connection Manager to connect to WorkSpaces, making it easier for you to use PCoIP Zero Clients in your organization.  

For more information, please refer to the Amazon WorkSpaces PCoIP Zero Client documentation. This feature is available at no additional charge, in all AWS regions where Amazon WorkSpaces is available. First time WorkSpaces customers can try the service by taking advantage of the Amazon WorkSpaces Free Tier offering for two calendar months at no cost. To get started, follow the Quick Setup Guide.
