Today we released Jamf Connect 2.40.0. This release includes the following changes and improvements:
- The Verify User Promotion via FIDO2 (VerifyUserPromotionFIDO2) setting allows administrators to have users authenticate through Safari prior to a privilege elevation session. Authenticating within a browser adds support for WebAuthn authenticators including passkeys and FIDO2 keys. This setting is currently supported with the following identity providers:
- Microsoft Entra ID
- Okta Identity Engine
- Okta OpenID Connect (OIDC)
- PingFederate
Note: Requiring WebAuthn authentication for privilege elevation may require changes to your identity provider's authentication policies.
After enabling the setting, the Jamf Connect OIDC application located in your identity provider configuration must use the following Redirect URI to prevent any errors: jamfconnect://loggedin
- The Jamf Connect menu bar app now displays the temporary privilege elevation duration in the format "MM:SS" to improve usability during privilege elevation sessions lasting less than 60 minutes.
To access new versions of Jamf Connect, log in to Jamf Account with your Jamf ID. The latest version is located in the Products section under Jamf Connect.
