Two factor authentication (2FA)
Strengthen the security of your user account
The arrival of 2-factor authentication in ServiceNav ensures secure user access. Whether you're a fan of Microsoft Authenticatoror any other authentication application that supports the Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) standard, you can now enable this feature in your user settings. Use case: you have powerful user rights in ServiceNav, and wish to secure your access as much as possible in mitigation of credential theft.
Enhancement
Export/Import Improvements
Easy configuration
We have made it our goal to make your life easier when you are working on the integration or updating of large infrastructure estates. From now on, all the configurable fields for hosts and services are available to export and import. Use case: you want to configure mass notification policies, with management of escalation levels and contacts, in a multi-customer/multi-site context, as efficiently as possible.

REMINDER - Internet Explorer 11 and Edge (Legacy) support phased out

As of January 2021new developments will be tested on the following browsers:
- Mozilla Firefox
- Google Chrome
- Edge (Chromium based)
Bugs specific to IE11/Edge Legacy will no longer be fixed.
