Welcome to Digipass Authentication for Remote Desktop Web Access!
Digipass Authentication for Remote Desktop Web Access is an add-on for Internet Information Services (IIS) that provides strong authentication with one-time passwords (OTPs).
The Digipass Authentication Module intercepts authentication requests to the Remote Desktop Web Access website using the HTTP forms authentication mechanism. It validates the OTP provided by the user and replaces it with the static password expected by the back-end server. The OTPs are validated using OneSpan Authentication Server or OneSpan Authentication Server Appliance/OneSpan Authentication Server Virtual Appliance.

Known issues
