  Users are now permitted to recover their passwords using all available authentication methods, including policies that include multiple forms of authentication.

• Support for User Agreement functionality
  Tenant Administrators of RapidIdentity have the option to create a User Agreement that can be presented to users on their first time logging in, or every time they log in. The User Agreement is attached to an Authentication Policy, which enables users affected by that policy to view and accept the agreement. These User Agreements will now be visible during the Authentication Client Log In Flow, and will mirror the message viewed when authentication in the Browser. user agreement is currently displayed for various authentication policies.

• Support for Account Lockout
  When configured in an Authentication Policy, RapidIdentity can enforce an account lockout policy that will disables/locks a user's account if an incorrect identity is entered a specified number of times over a certain period of time. The policy also determines the length of time a user's account will be locked before being unlocked. The account lockout prevents the user from logging onto the network for a period of time even if the correct password is entered.
  
  Account Lockout Settings are decided by Tenant Admin with the help of these three fields in the Authentication Policy:
  1. FAILED ATTEMPTS : No of incorrect password attempts limit.
  2. WITHIN (Min): Time frame lock/disable user's account.
  3.AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK AFTER (Never/Hours/Minutes): Time frame to unlock user automatically.
