Feature Description

Insights for compromised passwords

The user can view the applications and secured items that contain compromised passwords. The User Portal and IBE alert users by displaying a red icon on the app/secure item tile or the folder when a compromised password is detected and prompts the user to change the password. Admin can set policies to control if users can launch or share applications, folders, or Secured Items that have compromised passwords. Admin can also block users from saving compromised passwords.

Description

Initial release version

Import credentials directly from LastPass

Users can import credentials directly from LastPass to CyberArk Identity without using a .csv file. Direct import is more secure than other methods because users don’t have to save the exported data and credentials on their devices. After a successful import, users can access their applications and Secured Items in the CyberArk IdentityUser Portal.

See Import accounts for more information.

23.6

The CyberArk Identity mobile app supports TOTP

The CyberArk Identity mobile app supports TOTP for two-factor authentication to access applications. A TOTP is a time-based one-time password. To set up TOTP, see Enable time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) for two-factor authentication. For end user instructions, see Use time-based passwords (TOTPs) for sites with two-factor authentication.

Known issues

Known issues for WPM

Issue

Workaround

If an application is shared to a user, role, or group of users, and then again shared to the same user, role, or group through a folder, the folder permissions are given precedence.

For example, suppose an application is shared to a role or group with edit permissions and shared to the same user, role, or group through a folder with view permissions. View permission is given precedence.

There is currently no workaround.

In the Identity Browser Extension, when a user tries to copy the password for an admin-added application and MFA is enabled, the user gets the message Password UnKnown instead of the correct message Open the User Portal to view the password for this MFA-enabled application.

Instruct the user to open the User Portal to view the password for the application.

In the User Portal (new user interface), the functionality to sort items according to what has been recently added or frequently used is not working as expected.

None.
