What DigitalPersona Mobile is
DigitalPersona Mobile is an authenticator app for Android and iOS used with HID DigitalPersona. It generates TOTP one-time passwords and can approve push authentication requests when an administrator configures the service. Users enroll by scanning a QR code, protect the app with a six-digit passcode, and can use fingerprint sign-in on supported devices. One-time passwords change every 30 seconds. The broader DigitalPersona platform supports passwordless Windows authentication and MFA across Windows, networks, and applications, using factors such as biometrics, badges, smart cards, security keys, OTP tokens, Bluetooth devices, and passkeys. Listed integrations include RADIUS, OpenID Connect, WS-Federation, SAML2P, AD FS, Microsoft Entra ID, Citrix, and other enterprise systems. The product is freemium with a free plan; paid pricing is on request. Its 30-day evaluation license supports up to 10 users. Deployment can be self-hosted.
