Windows login passwordless RDP support
Improved PingID Integration for Windows login
The Windows login passwordless remote desktop (RDP) sign-on process has been improved and now requires only one authentication request.
OAEP Padding as default
Improved PingID Integration for Windows login
OAEP padding is now used as the default padding scheme with RSA encryption for offline authentication.
If you do not want to use OAEP padding for offline authentication, use the rsa_padding option when running the CLI installation. For information, see Installing passwordless Windows Login integration on client computers (CLI).
NFC reader support
Improved PingID Integration for Windows login
Windows login passwordless now supports authentication using an NFC reader.
User Verification discouraged support for security keys

We’ve added the option to skip user verification for Windows login passwordless users. This requires the relevant flag to be added as an optional parameter during installation.
