Solution overview

DigitalPersona allows the implementation of an optimal set of authentication factors, offering organizations a holistic approach to securing various corporate resources, but also components for clients and servers (single sign-on – SSO, Access Management API or Password Manager).

DigitalPersona is the ideal solution especially for the financial, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, call center, police, or environments where multiple users need to easily and securely share the same workstation or user session.

Main functionalities

DigitalPersona provides multi-factor authentication, helping to implement an identity-focused Zero Trust security architecture for your employees, customers, and partners. In addition, it constantly adapts to constantly evolving security standards, technologies and industry regulations. The solution offers the following functionalities:

Password Manager

It securely stores the user's login credentials to various resources (websites, Windows apps) and allows you to use them quickly after the user is authenticated via MFA. For maximum security, optionally, passwords for accessing these resources can be created in a random way.

Self-Service Password Recovery

Recover user passwords through unique questions, created by users or preset by the administrator.

Acces Management API

Through the DigitalPersona API and Web API, it enables integrated deployment and full scalability both on-premises and in the cloud.

Web SSO (Single sign-on)

Allows integration of OpenID Connect or WS-Fed applications. The SSO App Portal is available on both Windows and mobile platforms. Customers have the option to remove all passwords.

Shared User Session Logins

Allows multiple single sign-ons of users on a kiosk terminal or in a shared session, in vertical areas such as manufacturing, healthcare, retail, etc.

DigitalPersona Reports

Help meet compliance requirements by using Windows Event Forwarding (WEF) to collect security events and by using the Microsoft Power BI service for reporting.

DigitalPersona RADIUS with MFA

Allows MFA to be enabled for VPN, RDP Gateway, etc. with RADIUS authentication.​

Contextual authentication

In addition to the traditional set of authentication factors, DigitalPersona can be combined with Microsoft Sites and Services, adding authentication for contextual risk factors – time, speed, and location. They allow you to precisely tailor your security posture.

Key features

  • MFA for Windows: DigitalPersona enables the use of MFA technology, including passwordless authentication, to log in to Windows operating system, with the ability to combine up to 3 factors to meet the security needs of organizations.
  • Fast integration with AD: Integrates quickly and seamlessly with Active Directory (AD) using existing infrastructure and management tools.
  • Fast Kiosk Access: Enforces advanced authentication policies for workstations used by multiple users (such as kiosks), where users have individual credentials to access Windows and sign in to apps. HID DigitalPersona provides support for multiple kiosks and shared workstation environments.
  • Fast Login Recovery: Allows quick and simple recovery of credentials, from any location, through 3 methods: knowledge based questions, assisted recovery through a temporary access code or temporary password.
  • Federated & Non Federated Authentication: Integrates MFA into organizations’ federated applications through protocols such as WS-Fed, OpenID Connect, and SAML2P. Sample apps include Microsoft 365, Salesforce, SharePoint, etc. Also, integrates MFA with non-federated apps with DigitalPersona Web and DLL-based SDKs.
  • Assisted enrollment: Optional feature that allows the addition of an additional layer of security for validating the user’s identity, at the time of credential registration by an authorized person.
