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.

Review
We have benefited from this integration by helping users login to their domain workstations using their fingerprints and one less password to remember.
Active Directory
- RemoteApp applications
Users use Digital Persona to login to the published RemoteApps. It was fairly straight forward to achieve but does run into hiccups sometimes.
- Remote users on their non-domain workstations connecting to their domain workstations.
No.
- Single Signon
Get the latest version of the software, Altus. This is what they are called after the company was bought out and supports Windows 10 properly.
It is used by the whole organization. It takes the pain away from typing in your passwords every day for different websites and applications.
- Login speed
- Secure
- Sometimes it does not register fingerprints
- Templates get corrupt occasionally
We use DP for multiple logins including Windows, different websites, and other third-party applications.
- Makes the environment safer when users do not need to know their passwords so they cannot share it either by mistake or voluntarily.

Good Smart Finger
This has definitely been and Huge help for us. Less people forget passwords which stops our IT department from doing other projects. It is also very helpful being a secondary authentication for more secure websites. With it being very easy to use, any employee can just jump right in and start using it without any issues.
Our Core system and all of our Finance programs. We are now using DP with more cloud based programs and Anti-Virus. Mostly using it for Windows systems and websites. With more things going to sso we are finding new ways to use Digital Persona Altus so far everything is working.
- Xp2
Very easy to achieve. It only needs passwords.
- Single Signon
- AppExchange or similar marketplace
None that I can think of.
Take your time and don't over think it. It is very easy to use and is not the complicated.
DigitalPersona is being used by our entire organization. It really helps with our virtual system and when people have to change locations to help out they have all their passwords saved and easy access. This saves time and less calls to IT for forgotten passwords/resets. The program is very intuitive and once the templates are set up it is very user friendly.
- Very intuitive.
- Easy to get up and running.
- Great customer support with getting things moving smoothly.
- Overall good, none come to mind.
- Less password resets.
- Less forgotten passwords.
- Easy to change locations.

Useful solution for beefing up security posture
We have been able to randomize most of our users' AD passwords so that they are more secure. Most users now authenticate using only their fingerprint.
Right now, only Windows authentication and 3rd party website logins.
- We have not done any integrations. We only use DP to authenticate to 3rd party websites.
- We have done as much integration as we plan on doing for right now.
None of the above
None, we do not have any integrations.
All users authenticate to Windows using biometric fingerprint readers. We also use password manager through the Altus console to authenticate to 3rd party websites. We have over 120 3rd party logins that we manage, so this solution saves us time logging in to 3rd party websites and applications, and also gives us a secure way to store passwords.
- Windows authentication
- Password management
- multifactor authentication
- We have issues with fingerprint misreads with our users who do not have as defined of a fingerprint
- We also have issues with the Agent not loading in Internet Explorer consistently on some workstations.
We have struggled to get it working with VPN due to the fact that VPN is mostly used on laptops. Getting the built in fingerprint reader on laptops to work with DP is shaky at best.
- Positive impact is for the users for which the solution works they love it and it saves them time.
- We don't have any benchmarks, but, anecdotally, users report that the solution saves them time logging into websites and frustration with managing passwords.
