I saw this as well for applications, but I didn't see anything where it would apply for file access to a particular folder?

Looks like this can't easily be done at this time.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
We have a request to put the highest possible security on a folder. &nbsp;We've been asked to put 2 FA on access, but only to those who need to access that folder and preferably only when they have to access that folder.<br />
<br />
We can't see how this is directly possible using Duo or RSA, but if there is we'd love to know how. &nbsp;If it is not, what kind of &quot;out of the box&quot; ways can we have a very high security folder within an environment? <br />
<br />
We considered moving it to the cloud to secure it with 2FA, but this also then exposes a cloud/Internet component and they are looking for the tightest security possible.<br />
<br />
Thanks to everyone who contributes!

2 FA on a Windows server folder

Encryption is the process of encoding messages or information in such a way that only authorized parties can read it. In an encryption scheme, the intended communication information or message, referred to as plaintext, is encrypted using an encryption algorithm, generating ciphertext that can only be read if decrypted. For technical reasons, an encryption scheme usually uses a pseudo-random encryption key generated by an algorithm. An authorized recipient can easily decrypt the message with the key provided by the originator to recipients, but not to unauthorized interceptors.

Windows OS

Operating system security (OS security) is the process of ensuring OS integrity, confidentiality and availability. OS security refers to specified steps or measures used to protect the OS from threats, viruses, worms, malware or remote hacker intrusions. OS security encompasses all preventive-control techniques, which safeguard any computer assets capable of being stolen, edited or deleted if OS security is compromised, including authentication, passwords and threats to systems and programs.

OS Security

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.
