title: Enabling multi-factor authentication for the Azure portal
body: <p>Is it possible to enable multi-factor authentication for getting access to the Azure portal, <a href="https://portal.azure.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://portal.azure.com</a>?</p>
  
  <p>I know there is an MFA server resource in Azure itself, but my understanding is that this is for Azure hosted applications/resources. I initially want to enable MFA for getting access to the portal itself, before setting it up for the different resources themselves in Azure.</p>
