Device Registration Security

Notify users when a new mobile device is registered

If this option is enabled, users will receive a notification whenever a new authenticator instance is registered to their account. This helps to detect and prevent unauthorized attempts to register authenticator instances on behalf of other users.

The notification messages are scheduled to be sent via Message Delivery Component (MDC) and use message templates specified in the the MDC Settings > Device Registration Security section.

Default value: No

Client devices require a mobile app that was customized with Mobile Authenticator Studio 5.8.1 or later and configured to use device registration security.
