New Features - Centrify Infrastructure Services (formerly known as Privilege Service)
Secure Shell Gateway – File Transfer
- Adds to the Secure Shell Gateway capability implemented in 17.7
- Users can establish file transfer sessions using shared accounts directly, and use their favorite client (e.g. WinSCP) without visiting the portal and leveraging the Centrify connector(s) as the gateway
- Maintains platform features:
- Authentication Profiles (MFA)
- Administrative SCP session termination
- Access Request (Workflow)

Password Complexity Profiles
- Allows the ability to set up password complexity rules at the global or system level
- Centrify provides a set of built-in rules that are QA-validated to work on supported classes of systems
- Granularity to define password length, additional requirements, special characters, leading or trailing characters
- Built-in profiles are tied to corresponding system classes
- This is a foundational capability to support systems such as IBM i and other upcoming capabilities

IBM System i
- The IBM System i (formerly AS/400) platform enjoys large penetration in highly-regulated enterprises (mostly seen in banking)
- The underlying OS (OS/400) relies heavily on shared accounts (profiles), therefore Shared Account Password Management is a must
- Versions supported (6.1 and above) using the SSH Server daemon
- The Password Profile feature can be leverage to onboard IBM i systems with different password rules
Session Size Preferences
- This highly-requested feature allows end-users to set their preferred privilege session window size for SSH (web client) and RDP (local & web client)
- The preference is set per browser
PowerShell samples support for AD and Database Accounts
- 17.8 updates the sample PowerShell scripts
- Add / Moves / Changes (Get, Set & Remove) of local, AD or database accounts
- Get-CIPAccount can be used to retrieve passwords. Make sure the system service account has the view+checkout permissions in the target account
- Use the domainname or databasename parameters to specify the account type

Resolved Issues and Behavior Changes
The following list records issues resolved in this release and behavior changes.
- RADIUS challenges are now supported for RADIUS authentication, however RADIUS accounting is not currently supported. Note that if you are using external RADIUS (such as RSA SecurID) you must upgrade Connectors to 17.8 for full functionality (CC-46766).
- After enrollment, the default on Android devices for the Settings -> Show All Applications option is now checked (CC-49463).
- Room objects are no longer mistaken as users during Office 365 provisioning (CC-47843)
- MS-LDAP users can now log in and be invited to the User Portal. Microsoft LDAP uses a slightly different dialect to other LDAP servers and this is now supported (CC-50060).
- The forgot user name self-service feature now accepts user email addresses regardless of entered case (CC-49486).
- Errors no longer generated when provisioning GSuite users (CC-50156, CISSUP-3254).
- In the Box and GSuite provisioning apps, Active Directory users are no longer removed from AD groups when a user’s attributes are updated (CC-47102).
- With the Wordpress SAML app, Active Directory users’ Active Directory groups are now updated to Wordpress (CC-46252).
- The Wordpress SAML app now honors the “Allow unlisted users” checkbox (CC-46251).
- Active Directory computer users are now tagged as service users automatically. Note that existing AD computer users will not be tagged until they log in again (CC-50059).
- The SSH gateway feature no longer reports authentication failed when the authentication profile that applied to the user had two consecutive password options (CC-48695).
