MFA Should Be Enabled On User Accounts

1. Navigate to IAM Dashboard:
   • Sign in to the AWS Management Console.
   • In the top navigation bar, select “Services” and then choose “IAM” under the “Security, Identity, & Compliance” section.
2. Select Users:
   • In the IAM dashboard, click on “Users” in the left-hand navigation pane.
   • This will display a list of all IAM users in your AWS account.
3. Enable MFA for Each User:
   • Click on the username of the user for whom you want to enable MFA.
   • In the user details page, select the “Security credentials” tab.
   • Under the “Multi-factor authentication (MFA)” section, click on the “Manage” button.
   • Follow the on-screen instructions to assign and activate an MFA device for the user. This typically involves scanning a QR code with an MFA app (like Google Authenticator) and entering the generated code to verify.
4. Enforce MFA Policy:
   • To ensure that all users have MFA enabled, you can create an IAM policy that requires MFA for specific actions.
   • Go to the “Policies” section in the IAM dashboard.
   • Click on “Create policy” and use the JSON editor to define a policy that requires MFA. For example:

     {
       "Version": "2012-10-17",
       "Statement": [
         {
           "Effect": "Deny",
           "Action": "*",
           "Resource": "*",
           "Condition": {
             "BoolIfExists": {
               "aws:MultiFactorAuthPresent": "false"
             }
           }
         }
       ]
     }
     

   • Attach this policy to all IAM users or groups to enforce MFA.

1. Create an MFA Device for the User: First, you need to create an MFA device for the user. This can be a virtual MFA device or a hardware MFA device. Here, we’ll use a virtual MFA device.
   Copy

   Ask AI

   aws iam create-virtual-mfa-device --virtual-mfa-device-name <VirtualMFADeviceName> --outfile /path/to/qr-code.png
   

   This command will create a virtual MFA device and output a QR code that can be scanned by an MFA application (like Google Authenticator).
2. Enable MFA for the User: Once the virtual MFA device is created, you need to enable it for the user by associating it with the user account. You will need two consecutive MFA codes from the MFA device.

   aws iam enable-mfa-device --user-name <UserName> --serial-number arn:aws:iam::<AccountID>:mfa/<VirtualMFADeviceName> --authentication-code1 <MFA_Code1> --authentication-code2 <MFA_Code2>
   

3. Update User’s Login Profile to Require MFA: Ensure that the user’s login profile is updated to require MFA. This can be done by setting up an IAM policy that enforces MFA.
   Copy

   Ask AI

   aws iam put-user-policy --user-name <UserName> --policy-name MFARequired --policy-document '{
     "Version": "2012-10-17",
     "Statement": [
       {
         "Effect": "Deny",
         "Action": "*",
         "Resource": "*",
         "Condition": {
           "BoolIfExists": {
             "aws:MultiFactorAuthPresent": "false"
           }
         }
       }
     ]
   }'
   

4. Verify MFA Device Association: Finally, verify that the MFA device is correctly associated with the user.
   Copy

   Ask AI

   aws iam list-mfa-devices --user-name <UserName>
   

   This command will list all MFA devices associated with the specified user, allowing you to confirm that the MFA device is properly set up.

               AuthenticationCode2='789012'   # Replace with actual MFA code
           )
