What's New in Proficy Authorization 2024

The following enhancements and new features are available with this release.

Auto-Login Across Multiple Domains

Enabled automatic authentication across multiple domains or Active Directory environments to provide a simplified login process for users. This feature calls for developing a trust between two domain controllers. A domain controller is a server that manages security authentication within a domain or network. By developing trust, the controllers can securely communicate and exchange authentication information, allowing users to access resources across multiple domains without the need for repeated logins.

UI Support for Many Items

Proficy Authentication is now capable of displaying and interacting with all the Proficy Authentication registered users and groups. Prior to the addition of this functionality, Proficy Authentication could see and interact only with the top 500 groups and users. Existing APIs were utilized to accomplish this feature and provide for an enhanced user experience.

Language Support

Language support for Chinese, German, French, and Japanese enables users from diverse linguistic backgrounds to interact with the authentication system in their preferred language, improving usability and accessibility.

Backup and Restore

A stable backup and restore script designed to work seamlessly for both the Proficy Authentication database and its configuration provides users with a reliable method to backup and restore their data and settings.

Current Version Display

The Security plug-in now includes the ability to display the version number of the installed Proficy Authentication application. This feature provides administrators with quick access to the current version information, helping in application maintenance.
