🆕 Product Updates

Remember My Device

With “Remember My Device”, your users can choose to bypass secondary authentication on a trusted device. As Admin, you can optionally bind this to their previous IP addresses to mitigate credential theft or sharing to protect your users. Learn more in the AuthN Security Controls.

AuthN - Firebase Import

With this release, we’ve expanded Pangea’s Hashed Password Import capability to process password hashes exported from Firebase. At import time, select the column of your password hash, select “Firebase-scrypt” and we will attempt to auto-discover the hash parameters for import. At their next authentication, they’ll be prompted for a new password and their account will be activated in seconds.

Bring Your Own-Twilio

While SMS is an easy-to-deploy multi-factor option, not every organization wants it or wants to support every country. With Bring Your Own Twilio, you can leverage your own Twilio account with its security controls and pricing to support SMS how and where you want. You can activate Bring Your Own Twilio in your Pangea User Console now under Integrations.

Vault Dashboard Widgets

We added some new dashboard widgets for our Vault users 📊Get a summary of your keys, secrets, and tokens all in one place. Check it out if you haven't yet!

Paved Paths Towards Secure by Design

A paved path is a set of pre-built solutions available for all of an organization’s development teams to use (APIs, services, frameworks, modules, or libraries). The centralized assets on such paths provide shared solutions, codify preferred practices, and make available valuable functionality. After introducing paved paths and their value, this article explores using them as a route to improve security and follow Secure by Design.
