What’s New
Credential Provider
-
There is a new registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VeridiumID\VeridiumAD] "WorkstationLockAfterPasswordChange"=dword:00000001When set to 1, a user triggering a password change using Ctrl-Alt-Del -> Change password flow, will also trigger in a workstation lock.
Default value is 0 (disabled). -
There is an improvement in logging in WBF (Windows Biometric Framework) onboarding app. Enrollment process provides more detailed information to Windows Application event log for easier diagnosing.
-
Credential Provider UI responds to offline/online connection switches more coherently, switching to offline or retrying the online authentication correctly for all HTTP codes.
-
Users can choose “Skip password renewal” if they are in the grace period before password change deadline set by policy.

-
RA/EP supports .NET Framework 4.7.3
