New features, enhancements, and other improvements
Phone call authentication to Chinese numbers issue resolved
- Duo has resolved issues with blocked phone call authentications to Chinese (+86) numbers (described at the top of this post) by working with one of our telephony providers and the Chinese government.
- Our automated phone calls for authentication are no longer being blocked.
- The message that appeared in the Duo Prompt advising users with +86 numbers against using phone call authentication has now been removed.
Duo Admin Panel layout improvements
- The Azure Active Directory, Active Directory, and OpenLDAP sections of the Directory Sync page are now separate tabs, instead of all appearing on the same page.
- The tables on each of these tabs now utilize a “Load more” button to display more entries. This replaces the previous pagination functionality.
- The Hardware Tokens table under the 2FA Devices section now utilizes a “Load more” button to display more entries. This replaces the previous pagination functionality.
- These changes are similar to the changes to the Pending Enrollments and Applications tables from our previous releases.
Additional improvements
- Improved performance of retrieving the default Directory name from Azure when creating a new Azure Active Directory sync in the Duo Admin Panel.
- Added a link to our Services Privacy Notice to the Sign Up for Duo and Duo Admin Panel login pages.
New and updated applications
Duo Mobile for iOS 3.27.0 released
- Improved WatchOS stability to address connection issues.
- Updated Duo Push notifications to always show even if you have the application open.
- Improved our localized app experience with updated translations and fixed cut off text.
Additional changes
- NetMotion is now a named application in the Duo Admin Panel. There is no change to our existing instructions for this application except to create a “NetMotion Mobility” integration instead of a “RADIUS” one.
- AWS Directory Service is now a named application in the Duo Admin Panel.
Bug fixes
- Improved the handling of usernames containing certain special characters for Azure AD single-user sync.
