What's New in Imprivata Mobile Access Management

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

New Features

Launchpad Display for End Users

Launchpad Display provides a visual interface and clear instructions to help an end user check out a device and return it successfully.

Obtaining a phone, and returning it, should be simple and intuitive. Today, MAM relies on a series of beeps and lights to communicate to an end user what is going on at the time a badge is tapped.

The Launchpad Display replaces these with a visual interface providing clear instructions to an end user. Whether a first-time user, or a seasoned user, the display will greatly improve the user experience and get a device into the hands of a user quickly so they can get their day started.

Epic API Server Logout

Formerly Enhanced Epic Rover Logout.

Use the Epic API logout feature to disassociate a user from a device in Epic and prevent push notifications (messages, alerts, or calls) from being sent to the device after check in.

Existing logout functionality (force quit) for Epic apps like Rover closes the app session on the device, but leaves the Epic backend systems unaware that the user no longer has the device. Notifications (without PHI) continue to be sent to the device and appear in the notifications list for the next user. With Epic API Logout integration, MAM communicates directly with Epic environment and prevents unnecessary and confusing audible notifications from being sent. (this should be used in conjunction with the existing ‘force quit’ feature)

Additional Improvements and Fixed Issues

  • iOS Express Check Out workflow now supports the ability to set an attribute

  • Smart Hub serial numbers have been added to the list view export

  • Added a Notes field to automation rules

  • Reordering workflows in automation rules with three or more workflows no longer fails

  • Devices that are unlocked by Emergency PIN while not connected to a network now check in consistently

  • Deleting an MDM that was previously used in an OTA workflow with Android devices is now possible

  • OTA Workflows containing enable/disable lost mode for Android can now be saved consistently

  • Large image files no longer fail to apply on iPads using the set wallpaper action

  • Launchpad no longer intermittently fails to display port numbers on Bretford Smart Hubs running 1.0.4 firmware

Previous Releases

Features and fixed issues from previous releases.

iOS Express Check Out (Public Preview)

Express Check Out for iOS is a new workflow model designed specifically for simplicity and speed. Express check out is designed to check out a device in under two seconds so your clinicians can get their devices fas and focus on taking care of patients.

Mass Deploy Launchpads (Windows)

Console Admins can now download and automatically register a Windows Launchpad using the new mass deployment installer (MSI). Automated Launchpad registration tokens are now generated during download, and can be passed to the installer with a provided standard msiexec command. This eliminates several manual steps previously required when using desktop deployment tools to push out Launchpad installations.

Flexible Password Autofill Functionality

In the previous release of Locker, users outside of their EAM grace period were prompted with a Continue button for MFA during check out. This is so that 1-Tap password autofill is available for apps like Epic Rover. Users who prematurely left the Locker app after check out bypassed this workflow and were not able to use Autofill. Locker iOS 3.14 restores the ability for a user to satisfy MFA while autofilling passwords into an app.

Additional Improvements and Fixed Issues

  • Using the Locker Custom Option key ‘defaultDomain’ admins can now set a default EAM domain for Locker iOS and Android. Users will see the default domain pre-selected from the domain drop-down.

  • A new ‘Check Out Duration’ column (time between badge tap and flashing white LED) has been added to the activity export.

  • Workflows using Ivanti MDM that contain both clear passcode and retire actions now work consistently.

  • Device Passcode Clearing triggered by Device Passcode Management settings will no longer start while another deployment is running for a device.

  • Automation rules with many historical deployments no longer have difficulty being deleted.

  • Fixed an issue that would cause sorting devices by ‘Last Seen’ to not work correctly.

  • When configuring Launchpad monitoring, ‘Send Test Alert’ button now works consistently.

  • Timestamp used in overdue device alerts now reflects the date the device went overdue, and not the date of the last deployment.

  • ‘Device last connected over "N" days ago’ filter no longer erroneously display connected devices.

  • Resolved an issue that would sometime cause duplicate deployments during a bulk deployment.

  • When running a ‘Sync’ MDM command on Android devices with WorkspacOne, the server no longer incorrectly resets the device name.

  • Send Email action now works consistently when Launchpad and Device tokens are used simultaneously.

  • Server no longer incorrectly reports timed out OTA deployments when OTA workflows are run as a secondary workflow as part of a check out automation rule.

  • Locker iOS now shows the correct instructions for enabling Password Autofill on iOS 18.

  • Resolved an issue where battery % was not displaying in the Launchpad for Android devices.

Streamlined MFA Workflow for Check Out (iOS)

Users are now prompted for their personal Imprivata PIN immediately when checking out a device outside of the EAM (OneSign) grace period.

Users are no longer prompted to enter their PIN while Autofilling credentials into apps.

Users who are outside of the grace period can now utilize 1 tap Password AutoFill for supported apps like Epic Rover.

Additional Improvements and Fixed Issues

  • Admins deploying Windows Launchpads can now optionally choose to deploy the ‘Apple Devices’ app instead of extracting files from the iTunes installer.

  • Smart Hub features (port numbers, LED light support) are now enabled for all organizations.

  • Customers can now bulk retire devices that are lost, stolen, or end of life.

  • Added support for clearing an Android passcode during Check In for devices configured with Soti MDM.
