RSA August 2023 Release Announcements

Cloud Authentication Service Updates

The following subsections provide the highlights of the new and enhanced features of Cloud Authentication Service (CAS).

Rebranding of My Page and the Cloud Administration Console

My Page and the Cloud Administration Console have been rebranded from "SecurID" to "RSA". Both have been updated with the new RSA logo and colors. The following example screen shows the rebranded dashboard of the Cloud Administration Console.

Rebranded Risk AI Dashboard and Adjustable Identity Confidence Threshold

In the Cloud Administration Console, the Identity Confidence Dashboard has been rebranded as the Risk AI Dashboard. You can now modify the Identity Confidence Threshold value calculated by the Risk Engine. The effective threshold will be the sum of the dynamic threshold and the adjusted threshold values. In the Risk AI Dashboard, the “User Behavior Over Time" line graph reflects the Effective Threshold in addition to the Identity Confidence Score and the Dynamic Calculated Threshold, indicating the contributing factors.

New Region-Based Domain Names for Identity Routers

New region-specific domain names have been added for primary and alternate regions as a part of a future plan to reduce the overall failover time. Therefore, you need to whitelist these new domain names if you are using name-based firewall rules so that in the future your identity routers can connect to the Cloud using these new region-specific domain names.

Note: The domain names used in other URLs (e.g., Cloud Administration Console, REST API URLs, or a URL that AM connects to) remain the same.

The identity routers have been enhanced to perform periodic connectivity checks to the Cloud using these new region-specific domain names, and the results are shown in the Cloud Administration Console. To check the connectivity statuses of the Software Update Service, the Adapter Update Service, and the Cloud Authentication Service Connection to the primary and alternate regions using these new domain names, navigate to Platform > Identity Routers in the Cloud Administration Console.

Logout URL Support for All Primary Authentication Methods

The Logout URL field on the Cloud Administration Console > Access > My Page can now be configured irrespective of the selection made in the Primary Authentication Method. This was previously allowed only for the "Performed by Cloud Identity Provider" authentication method.

Upgraded log4j Libraries in the Cloud Administration REST API Download Version 2.7.3

The new SDK V2.7.3 upgraded the log4j dependency from 1.2.17 to 2.20.0 to address all the known log4j vulnerabilities in the previous releases, noting that the SDK is not using vulnerable log4j features.
