XTAM now allows you to create secure, high trust, password-less remote sessions to your managed Windows endpoints using your native desktop or mobile RDP clients. XTAM added the ability to create RDP proxy sessions directly from your desktop or mobile device without downloading or installing any agents, custom launchers or deployment packages. Secure privileged sessions have never been easier or more convenient!

XTAM expands its support for Duo Security, a popular MFA provider that offers a variety of second-factor methods of authentication and several options to integrate with user directories. We now added Duo Security as an MFA option to a user’s SSH Proxy access using native SSH clients including Duo Push, SMS, Phone Call and OTP modes to confirm your administrator’s identity. Previously, XTAM supported Duo Security as an MFA provider to access the WEB GUI and in-browser sessions. This recent XTAM update brings Duo Security MFA to access remote hosts as well as XTAM Shell using native SSH clients such as PuTTY, Secure CRT, MobaXTerm or ssh shell.

XTAM can now be used to update the IIS Application Pool Owner accounts after resetting their local or domain account password. Password reset for the IIS Application Pool Owners requires updating application pools using this account often across multiple computers. As a result, system administrators tend to rarely, if ever, update the application pool owner accounts password. This leaves more opportunities for malicious agents to penetrate the network. Using XTAM, this update automates the procedure of changing the password of the application pool owner accounts following the update of dependent IIS services using this account.

A new update has added MFA TOTP (Google Authenticator) and Yubikey token management to the MFA configuration screen to simplify assigning and resetting the keys for the system users. The option to reset tokens is still available on the Users report where it was before. The update consolidates various activities with the soft- and hard-ware tokens on the same screen. The update also introduces the option to disable WEB GUI MFA option to keep it for SSH Proxy only for the connections using native SSH clients.
A new Quick View option for records in the item browser simplifies routine access to record fields and sensitive information. This new function provides a one-click option to quickly look at the record details, unlock a password or a PIN code, copy user or host to clipboard without leaving the folder browser screen.
