- question: What is Windows Hello for Business cloud Kerberos trust?
|
||||
answer: |
|
||||
Windows Hello for Business cloud Kerberos trust is a new trust model that is currently in preview. This trust model will enable Windows Hello for Business deployment using the infrastructure introduced for supporting [security key sign-in on Hybrid Azure AD-joined devices and on-premises resource access on Azure AD Joined devices](/azure/active-directory/authentication/howto-authentication-passwordless-security-key-on-premises). cloud Kerberos trust is the preferred deployment model if you do not need to support certificate authentication scenarios. For more information, see [Hybrid cloud Kerberos trust Deployment (Preview)](/windows/security/identity-protection/hello-for-business/hello-hybrid-cloud-kerberos-trust).

- question: What about virtual smart cards?
|
||||
answer: |
|
||||
Windows Hello for Business is the modern, two-factor credential for Windows 10. Microsoft will be deprecating virtual smart cards in the future, but no date is set at this time. Customers using Windows 10 and virtual smart cards should move to Windows Hello for Business. Microsoft will publish the date early to ensure customers have adequate lead time to move to Windows Hello for Business. Microsoft recommends that new Windows 10 deployments use Windows Hello for Business. Virtual smart cards remain supported for Windows 7 and Windows 8.

- question: What about convenience PIN?
|
||||
answer: |
|
||||
Microsoft is committed to its vision of a <u>world without passwords.</u> We recognize the *convenience* provided by convenience PIN, but it stills uses a password for authentication. Microsoft recommends that customers using Windows 10 and convenience PINs should move to Windows Hello for Business. New Windows 10 deployments should deploy Windows Hello for Business and not convenience PINs. Microsoft will be deprecating convenience PINs in the future and will publish the date early to ensure customers have adequate lead time to deploy Windows Hello for Business.
|
||||
While *convenience PIN* provides a convenient way to sign in to Windows, it stills uses a password for authentication. Customers using *convenience PINs* should move to **Windows Hello for Business**. New Windows deployments should deploy Windows Hello for Business and not convenience PINs. Microsoft will be deprecating convenience PINs in the future and will publish the date early to ensure customers have adequate lead time to deploy Windows Hello for Business.

## The difference between Windows Hello and Windows Hello for Business
|
||||
|
||||
- Individuals can create a PIN or biometric gesture on their personal devices for convenient sign-in. This use of Windows Hello is unique to the device on which it's set up, but can use a password hash depending on an individual's account type. This configuration is referred to as Windows Hello convenience PIN and it's not backed by asymmetric (public/private key) or certificate-based authentication.

- **Windows Hello for Business**, which is configured by group policy or mobile device management (MDM) policy, always uses key-based or certificate-based authentication. This behavior makes it more secure than **Windows Hello convenience PIN**.

## Remote Desktop with Biometrics
|
||||
|
||||
Azure Active Directory and Active Directory users using Windows Hello for Business can use biometrics to authenticate to a remote desktop session.
|
||||
Windows Hello for Business supports using a certificate deployed to a Windows Hello for Business container as a supplied credential to establish a remote desktop connection to a server or another device. This feature takes advantage of the redirected smart card capabilities of the remote desktop protocol.
|
||||
Users using earlier versions of Windows 10 could authenticate to a remote desktop using Windows Hello for Business but were limited to using their PIN as their authentication gesture. Windows 10, version 1809 introduces the ability for users to authenticate to a remote desktop session using their Windows Hello for Business biometric gesture.
|
||||
|
||||
To get started, sign into your device using Windows Hello for Business. Bring up **Remote Desktop Connection** (mstsc.exe), type the name of the computer you want to connect to, and click **Connect**. Windows remembers that you signed using Windows Hello for Business, and automatically selects Windows Hello for Business to authenticate you to your RDP session. You can also click **More choices** to choose alternate credentials. Windows uses facial recognition to authenticate the RDP session to the Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V server. You can continue to use Windows Hello for Business in the remote session, but you must use your PIN.
