Active Directory Passthrough authentication - This provides a seamless way to co-exist/migrate from AD username and password to strong 2 Factor Authentication as our server can now process both sets of credentials simultaneously. Furthermore, the passthrough function can be restricted based on AD groups.
Emergency Override Access - In an emergency situation you can allow access with a fixed password/PIN and limit its use based on a period of time or number of uses. Emergency access will automatically be removed when a use next logs on with strong authentication.
Improved Management via MMC and Web - The AuthCentral Management Console includes many usability improvements including user searching, account status icons and now fully supports installation on Windows 8. The Web Operator Console also includes user searching as well as the ability to update more user properties. Updated JavaScript libraries further improve compatibility with the latest browsers for the Operator and Self Service Portals.
