Follow two easy steps:

1. Get a MFA device. You have three options:

Purchase a hardware YubiKey security key from Yubico, a third-party provider.

Purchase a hardware device from Thales, a third-party provider.

Install a virtual MFA–compatible application on a device such as your smartphone.

Visit the AWS MFA page for details about how to acquire a hardware or virtual MFA device.

2. After you have a MFA device, you must activate it in the IAM console. You can also use the AWS CLI to activate virtual MFA and hardware MFA (Thales device) for an IAM user. Note: AWS CLI does not currently support activation of U2F security keys.
