Configure your Remembered Devices policy

With the Remembered Devices policy, you can let users remember their trusted Windows workstation and bypass subsequent multi-factor authentication for a set period of time. This policy applies only to the RDP integration and requires version 3.5.1.0 of the ​Akamai​ MFA Windows Logon plugin to be installed on the workstation. To define your remembered devices policy, configure the following settings:
