Improved PingID

In situations where users without a paired device attempted to access an application, the successful pairing allowed them to access the application without taking into account the authentication policies defined.

An option has now been added to require that the relevant authentication policies for the application be applied even in this scenario. To enable this requirement, select the option in the Enrollment section of the PingID configuration page (Enforce Policy evaluation after new device registration).

New PingID

New PingID Integration for Windows login

You can now log in to a Windows computer without having to enter a password, using the PingID mobile app. The authentication relies on Certificate-Based Authentication, but the user experience is similar to the familiar authentication process with the PingID mobile app.

For details, see Integrating PingID with Windows login (passwordless).
