## Enhancements

### Multiple access mode (PingID Adapter 2.5)

In addition to the traditional organization-owned single-user device, (for example, an employee's laptop or desktop computer), the PingID Adapter has been extended to support the following use cases:

* An organization-owned multiple-users device, for example, a kiosk or shared tablet.

* A device not owned by the organization, that is used by single or multiple users.

* Configuration for prevention of storage of user information and long-lived sessions on certain devices (typically devices used by multiple users). This will require users to sign-on and re-authenticate on each subsequent login.

* Provide users with the ability to indicate that the browser used for access is running on a public device, or on a device not regularly used for secure access. This assures users that they can securely login without concern about user information being kept on that device.

|   | The multiple access mode requires PingFederate 9.2 and PingID Integration Kit 2.6 (packaged as part of the PingFederate 9.2 bundle). |

For further details, refer to the documentation [Supporting multiple access mode](../pingid_integrations/pid_supporting_multiple_access_mode.html).

### PingID PCV 2.5 unicode encryption support

The encryption method of the Radius State attribute has been enhanced to support non-standard VPN clients that will only accept unicode encoding.
