BeyondInsight and Password Safe 22.1 Release Notes

January 31, 2022

New Features and Enhancements:

  • Added support to create a new credential from the Scan Wizard.
  • Added support to create a new credential from within directory User Management area.
  • Added conditional logic to hide Cluster Analysis and Pivot Grid features if the AngularJS files are removed.
  • Added User Audits endpoints to Public API.
  • Endpoint Privilege Management
    • Now supports integration with EPM Web Policy Editor (WPE) and WPE Azure AD features. Additionally, BeyondInsight supports policy locking, which protects a policy that is actively being edited from being modified simultaneously by a different user, removing the possibility of creating conflicts when saving it.

Neither BeyondInsight nor the appliance ship with WPE. WPE must be manually installed in order for WPE to be available in BeyondInsight. Inclusion of WPE within the appliance is planned for a future release.
