New Features and Enhancements

The following features are available in this release:

Multiple Identity Support

• The Beyond Identity Authenticator now supports multiple identities per tenant. This feature allows users to enroll more than one digital identity in a platform authenticator instance. For example:

  • (Secure Work) An IT administrator can have an identity for privileged work applications and one for non-privileged work (such as reading email or browsing the Web).

  • (Secure Customer) A user can have an identity for themselves and another for their partner for the same app (such as Instagram).
    

  • Each credential includes the display name, username, and Tenant ID.
    
  • When attempting to authenticate, each identity is displayed. Select the appropriate identity (Account) to continue.
    

• • Multiple identity support is available on the following platforms:

    • iOS

    • macOS

    • Android

    • Windows

    • Linux

  Git Commit Signing

  • Git Commit Signing (macOS) now includes an option to allow a user to globally sign all repositories they own in addition to the option of selecting an individual repository.
    

  • • Keep the following points in mind when signing commits:

      • If a key that was previously used to configure an individual repository is deleted from the platform authenticator, that particular repository must be re-configured individually with a new key. This is necessary because the repository's configuration still references the deleted key, which takes precedence over the global configuration.

      • The global signing feature includes all repositories. This includes repositories (such as personal repositories) that are not configured to verify the signatures. The GitHub and GitLab web UI will simply indicate these signatures as unverified but there are no repercussions or issues with the signatures.

    Policy

    • The Event Details page includes the following enhancements when viewing a matched rule for Policy events:

      • The matched rule is displayed at the top of the page.

      • A search bar has been added to allow for filtering on specific keywords. Only rules containing the specified keyword are displayed.
