What's New in This Release¶
Release 24.03 of the Standard Agent for Windows includes:
Smart Card Authentication for Enhanced Security¶
Version 24.03 of the Graphics Agent introduces support smart card authentication. Linux Clients as well as Trusted Zero Clients connecting to agent machines can now connect using smart cards for authentication and SSO (single sign-on). Additionally, agents can read and process smart card information for in-session tasks such as document signing.
Smart card authentication not only adds a layer of security, but also ensures simplified identity management while accessing PCoIP deployments. For information on agent setup required for smart cards authentication, see Configuring the Agent for Smart Card Authentication.
Note: Supported Deployments
Smart card authentication is only supported in deployments where Linux clients and Trusted Zero Clients connect to Windows Standard agents or Windows Graphics agents.
