What's New in Imprivata Mobile Access Management

Imprivata Mobile Access Management 6.7 contains the following new features and technology updates.

New Features

Face Recognition Authentication Method for Check Out

Users can now use their face to satisfy multi-factor authentication when checking out a shared device. 

Requires integration with Imprivata Enterprise Access Management and Imprivata appliances running 25.2 (or later) software.

Personalized Lock Screen for Check Out using Live Activities — iOS

This release supports using Live Activities to display the device user on the lock screen. View the name of the person who checked out the device from the Lock Screen.  

Enhanced Console Admin Permissions for Large Organizations

Large organizations with multi-tiered parent-child organizations now have the ability to assign unique roles to an admin identity at different levels of their organization, while configuring SAML identity federation only once. This provides a simple way to configure identity federation with an enterprise identity provider to enforce MFA access to the MAM console. Once authenticated, users can be given the correct level of access for the locations that are relevant to them, while limiting access to locations they are not responsible for.

Imprivata Common UI

The MAM console and the Imprivata Locker apps now share the common Imprivata user interface style.

Additional Improvements

MAM Server

  • Express Check Out for Locker iOS is no longer in preview and is the recommended default check out experience.

  • Failed standard Check Out workflows now default to a 'Reboot and Check In' On Failure action. This excludes 'Device Remain Plugged In' time outs, and existing workflows are not modified.

  • Administrators are no longer required to configure MFA keyboard type for PIN or Password. The Imprivata Locker app now automatically offers the correct user experience based on assigned user policy.

  • New customer organizations automatically enforce policy assigned MFA before device a checked out device is unlocked. Existing organization can now optionally toggle this behavior to ensure MFA is satisfied. (Grace period remains respected).

  • Admin > Team page now offers user search and filter pills.

  • User role is now displayed in the user account settings modal.

  • Updated MDM names and icons.

  • The 'Device Checkout Status' column is automatically added to the Launchpad view when Check Out is enabled for the org.

  • The 'Device Checkout Status' field is no longer editable for new organizations. Existing organizations can continue to modify. Additional improvements for 'wandering device' workflows are planned.

  • Updated Check In action to clarify the Launch Blank Page option is no longer needed for devices running iOS 18 or higher.

  • Disable Local Keychain on Check In prevents users from inadvertently storing passwords on the device. Requires MAM 7.0 Launchpad or later.

MAM Launchpads

  • Users are now automatically prevented from autofilling passwords from the device local keychain. Only Locker app is used for password autofill.

  • The mouse cursor is now automatically hidden when the macOS launchpad is in End-User display mode.

  • Launchpad now supports using a single user identity to register a Launchpad to different levels of a large parent-child organization.

Imprivata Locker App

  • When displaying MFA, Locker now automatically offers the correct user experience based on assigned user policy.

  • Locker Diagnostics now displays the device serial number.

  • Added support to enforce the native device passcode on Android.

Fixed Issues

  • Resolved an issue that would sometime prevent Launchpads from displaying port numbers for Android devices connected to 8 port hubs

  • Resolved an issue that would sometime prevent Launchpads from displaying port numbers for iOS devices connected to Bretford hubs

  • Resolved an issue where Bretford 10 Port hubs were displaying as 20 port hubs
