28 June, 2023

We're pleased to announce the latest update to IRIS Networx.

These release notes contain a detailed breakdown of any new features or enhancements that have been developed, as well as any bug fixes that we have implemented. Our Development Teams release to Production on average every 2 weeks, so our monthly updates contain multiple development releases.

Bugs may have been reported via the Support Desk, fed back to us internally, or found during our own rigorous testing processes. Due to the bespoke nature of our software, there may be certain bugs reported that you haven't experienced in your system.

New Features

We are proud to introduce Two Factor Authentication. Robust multi-factor authentication methods ensure that only authorised individuals can access sensitive company data and resources, using a password and a secondary device, such as a mobile phone or email token.

If this feature is enabled, the next time that users log into IRIS Networx, a pop-up is displayed. This will ask them to enter a one-time passcode, which will have been sent to their email address.

The Passcode expires after 24 hours. Once expired, a new passcode will need to be requested, by the user attempting to log in again.

You can also customise the email that users receive by going to Settings > Communications > Emails and select the template type 2FA Email. Select Insert to choose which merge fields are added to your email template.

This feature is completely free to activate, simply raise a ticket with the IRIS Networx Support Team.

Please ensure that all user email addresses have been entered correctly before enabling this feature.
