What is HID DigitalPersona?
The HID DigitalPersona multi-factor authentication software offers a new way to provide authentication services to users. Whereas traditional 2FA/MFA solutions are stuck on “what you have/what you know”, DigitalPersona leverages an array of authentication methods to access public and corporate network resources. Enterprise users can gain access to their cloud applications, such as Microsoft 365, VPNs, corporate networks, Windows desktops, and Citrix applications . Consumers can confirm their identity and authenticate transactions.
Balancing security and usability, HID DigitalPersona boasts one of the widest arrays of authentication factors in the industry. This includes one-time passwords, mobile-based push, smartcards, security keys, risk- and context-based methods, and biometrics, such as fingerprint, face, and behavioral keystroke.

Easy Biometric Secure Login
We use HID DigitalPersona to log into our Active directory accounts and even a shared Kiosk account. Even when logging into the shared account, the credentials of the persona accessing that account are logged. It has very flexible multifactor authentication. It has a very extensive list of authentication methods you can use (fingerprint, face, smart card, pin, OTP, etc.).

Our decision to move away from HID DigitalPersona
Desktop login for users is good but the high overhead of adding/removing licenses. Requires software installation on domain controllers, which most administrators tend to avoid. Upgrades are recommended to use their professional services.

HID DigitalPersona Review
As HID DigitalPersona integrates with AD, it allows users to register their ID cards with their AD login which is stored in AD. This provides added security to their logins. A quick swipe of their ID card and they are in. Quicker logins mean better patient care and that benefits everyone involved.

Have Always Been Very Satisfied With All Aspects
Yes, this product provides full Microsoft Active Directory integration! Yes, our organization benefited since Active Directory is the system of records for users, workstations, and security groups.

Secure Multi-Factor Authentication Software for Remote Work
We have not used Microsoft Active Directory Integration yet.

HID DigitalPersona User Credential Manager
HID DigitalPersona integration with Active Directory has allowed users to more easily login to their workstations. It also allows for a centralized depository of user credentials allowing use of multiple workstations.

Local Government 2FA kickoff
Yes, one less server or program to manage is very beneficial. Everything is handled in AD.

HID Digital Persona/Biometric Review
Yes, we have integrated Microsoft AD with Digital Persona. This has allowed our IT department to streamline some of our processes like templates, password resets, and password management. This has also opened our eyes to this tool and given us more confidence in the software. Digital persona integration with Microsoft AD is a great thing.

DigitalPersona's Windows 2FA is Golden
That was a must-have from the beginning, as our small IT staff did not need another application to separately administrate. As we enable or disable a user in Active Directory, they are immediately set the same way in DigitalPersona. Easy administration equals staff augmentation for our team.

HID DigitalPersona is great, but the Chrome Extension needs work
The Active Directory logon is why we have stuck with them for so long. We have a large number of applications that utilize the Active Directory credentials and without this utilization, I believe the application would be severely limited in its use cases in an organizational setting.

To Crossmatch, or not to Crossmatch?
The full Active Directory integration was one of the main factors in determining what solution to use.

Utilizing DigitalPersona at a financial institution
We have DigitalPersona fully integrated into Active Directory. Doing this allows the users to move to any part of the bank and log onto any machine securely at any branch of the bank. All of the passwords and credentials are stored in a central location. All security and authentication are managed within Active Directory.
We have greatly benefited from this feature, as we are a MS AD environment. Being able to successfully authenticate users using not only secure but different features depending on the work zone has helped a lot. Being able to provide two factor or even three factor in some instances to protect the user, machine and data is wonderful.

Hands on review of DigitalPersona
Yes, we have benefited from the Microsoft Active Director integration. We simply assign users to our AD groups or GPO and they are asked to register their finger prints by the client. It is easy to manage and delete or reset finger prints from within Active Directory, so users never have to worry about getting locked out if they have problems with their prints.
Active Directory Integration is a key component of DigitalPersona. Once integrated all Active Directory user processes, like password changes, are transparent in DigitalPersona.
When an application uses active directory credentials for the application, you are initially prompted for how you want to sign into that application, like domain\username or username@domainname.com. DigitalPersona knows your AD password and it automatically logs you into that application.

Biometrics Solution Evaluation
We have benefited from AD integration. The additional extension of the schema allows having a better control to unlock, reset, and clear credentials of the users. It's easy to use and it becomes available on all the domain controllers in the environment. It also allows users to have a centralized password manager to be able to update their system passwords from one location.

DigitalPersona biometrics is the future
Yes, our institution has benefited for Microsoft Active Directory by facilitating single sign-on for applications other than Windows.
January 10, 2020
Easy peasy biometric security
Active Directory integration has been key for us especially since we have converted to Office 365 integration and begun to utilize more cloud-based applications. This integration has allowed us to use Digital Persona as a "one-stop-shop" for employee security management across so many additional platforms.
July 10, 2019
A good product so far
Yes it has.
May 27, 2019
Solid SSO Solution
Absolutely. Anything that integrates with Active Directory is inevitably saving us an immense amount of time. When users are added or removed, the process is seamless. Changing passwords could be improved though.
Not yet, but we're implementing this soon.
May 11, 2019
Just starting but it has been great!
Yes, this has been wonderful for us. We use it all the time.

DigitalPersona stands by their product and their level of support and quality of product is exceptional.
We use several DigitalPersona features, Active Directory integration allows us to use Windows Biometric (Fingerprint) login on workstations where more restricted access is required.
We can change computers and because of the Active Directory integration we don't have to worry about losing our bio-metric history. It's all stored in AD securely.

Our experience with DigitalPersona
We currently do not use ADS in our environment.
