Features, enhancements, and other improvements
New Directory Sync options
- Customers can now use our Directory Sync feature to synchronize users from an OpenLDAP directory.
- Customers can also perform an Active Directory Sync from a Linux or non-domain-joined Windows Server.
- These features require Duo Authentication Proxy 2.6.0.
- In the Duo Admin Panel, go to Users -> Directory Sync -> New Directory to get started.
- This feature is available to Duo MFA, Duo Access, and Duo Beyond edition customers.
Updates to how Duo interacts with biometric verification
- We have added official support for Face ID as a biometric factor. Face ID is treated equivalently to Touch ID. As a result, we have renamed the “Fingerprint” policy to “Mobile Device Biometrics.”
- In order to account for this change, we have updated all instances of “Fingerprint” in the Duo Admin Panel and the Duo Prompt to reflect the change. This includes the Policy page, the Device Insights page, the 2FA Devices page, and appropriate Reports.
- For example, the “Fingerprint” policy is now called “Mobile Device Biometrics.”
- For example, the “Fingerprint” policy is now called “Mobile Device Biometrics.”
