Troubleshooting multi-factor authentication

Because multi-factor authentication for Centrify-managed computers relies on the infrastructure of the Privileged Access Service, troubleshooting the configuration of your environment and potential connectivity issues can be challenging. To help you test and verify the proper configuration of an integrated environment, Centrify provides several diagnostic tools.

The following Centrify diagnostic tools are available on Windows computers:

  • Diagnostics Tool. The diagnostics tool is available through the Centrify Agent Configuration service, and is described in Viewing Windows diagnostics.
