Topicus KeyHub 35

We are proud to announce Topicus KeyHub 35. This release brings a variety of smaller and larger improvements throughout the entire suite. One of the most notable changes is the use of a new icon set throughout the application. Of course we also made a lot of other important changes, such as a total overhaul of all permissions related to administration of linked systems and a new release of the browser extension.

Styling and user experience

New icon sets

TKH-2979 Topicus KeyHub 35 features a whole new icon set. These new icons are much cleaner and better blend in with the rest of the application. Also, this set allowed us to pick better matching icons in several occasions.

Password visibility toggle

TKH-1237 TKH-1498 TKH-1749 TKH-2953 To encourage users to use longer, complex passwords, NIST recommends to allow users to show the password. This allows the user to verify the passwords while typing. This also makes it a lot easier to type a long password on a mobile phone. KeyHub now features a visibility toggle on almost all password fields. Not only does this help to user to type the correct password, it also gives a distinct look to password fields, preventing confusion.

Browser extension

Version 7.1.0 of the browser extension was released for all supported platforms. This version not only features the new iconset, it also includes a few bugfixes and improvements:

• TKH-2568 The browser extension can now be used in an incognito window in Google Chrome and other Chromium based browsers.

• TKH-2815 When many hits are found for a page, the fill popup now correctly selects the first.

• TKH-2990 Input fields with type="text" and autocomplete="current-password" are now correctly detected as password fields.

Administration of linked systems

TKH-2850 TKH-2851 TKH-2852 TKH-2853 TKH-2854 TKH-2911 TKH-2929 TKH-2970 TKH-2971 TKH-2972 TKH-2973 TKH-2974 All permissions and pages for administration of linked systems and applications were reviewed and re-aligned. Many small tweaks were made to allow the different roles involved with a linked system to view all data related to that system. Also, add buttons were added to all pages related to groups on systems. The large number of changes should make these pages more predictable and easier to work with.
