They say we tend to overestimate what we can do in short periods of time and underestimate in long periods of time. We tend to overfill our daily to-do lists; however, when we think in terms of months or years, it鈥檚 amazing how much we can achieve.
While 2023 seemed to sail by, we managed to accomplish a great deal this year. The 探花大神 product underwent many significant developments that have made it an even more user-friendly, robust, and secure platform. In this blog, we鈥檒l take a look back at some of those developments.
Identity
探花大神 has made managing identities even easier by breaking down the barrier between human resources and IT, lowering overhead, and making it easier to automate group memberships. Some of these developments included:
- Dynamic groups: with automated groups in advanced identity lifecycle management, admins can now provide mature entitlement management and strong identity governance by fully automating group memberships.
- Active Directory Integration: ADI agents are now installable on member servers when 探花大神 is the password authority and can sync multiple domains.
- HR system integrations: included updates to Deel, Factorial, Paylocity, and Personio.
- Automatic sync support for new directories. Organizations that use external directories not included in 探花大神鈥檚 catalog can create new integrations that automatically sync user data into 探花大神.
Access
探花大神 has improved organizations鈥� abilities to access the resources they need to Make Work Happen with the following releases:
- 探花大神 Admin Mobile App for iOS & Android: This new app helps admins resolve issues on the go.
- 探花大神 Go鈩�: 探花大神 Go is a phishing-resistant passwordless login. It delivers an integrated, cross-platform, and hardware-backed authentication that verifies a managed user on a managed device to enable secure, frictionless access.
- MFA enhancements:
- Push-bombing mitigation: Limit the number of push MFA user attempts for a resource or endpoint to increase cybersecurity.
- Improved MFA approval workflow for end users. Users can confirm an MFA push notification directly on their mobile device lock screen without opening the app directly, while still using a biometric check (if required) through Face ID/fingerprint/passcode before the Accept/Deny is accepted.
- New conditional access policy: Block SSO access where disk encryption is not enabled.
- RADIUS enhancements:
- Certificate-based authentication for RADIUS. Spend less time implementing MFA and managing support tickets while increasing network security.
- Passwordless RADIUS user certification distribution. Install certificates on end users鈥� devices for passwordless RADIUS authentication.
- Application creation workflow: A new guided workflow will assist you when creating an application integration.

As an OS-agnostic platform, 探花大神 is constantly looking for ways to improve its support of all device types. 探花大神 significantly broadened its device reach by adding Windows and Android EMM to its offerings, making it easier to remotely access devices, and improving workflows and automation.

- Self-service account provisioning: Users can bind their 探花大神 account to managed macOS and Windows devices directly from the login window.
- Run Ad Hoc Commands: Admins can now run ad hoc commands on their systems for tasks that are rarely repeated.
- Android EMM: 探花大神鈥檚 EMM offering includes Android devices 鈥� complete with pre-built policies available 鈥� at no additional cost.
