The first privacyIDEA Summit, release webinars and a new development team member
It feels like we only blinked for a moment and October is already over – a lot has happened at NetKnights! In October we released the 3.10.1 version of privacyIDEA. Compared to the community release of privacyiDEA 3.10 at the beginning of September, minor bugs have been fixed. As part of the release, we held two webinars for our national and international customers. These are a great opportunity for us to introduce the new software features and respond to our customers’ questions.
The first privacyIDEA Summit also took place in mid-October. Customers from all over Germany and Austria took up our invitation and met in Kassel for a day full of exciting discussions about privacyIDEA, multi-factor authentication and current IT security issues. The day and the exchange with our customers was very important to us and we are currently planning the privacyIDEA Summit 2.0.
We are currently preparing for the OLF Conference in Ohio. Not only are we sponsoring the event, but our founder Cornelius Kölbel will also be speaking there and networking with our American customers. We are also very much looking forward to the upcoming IT Security Day in Kassel next week.
We are particularly happy to welcome a new developer to our team at the beginning of October, who is committed to the further development of privacyIDEA. It makes us very proud to see how many dedicated and smart people are working together to develop privacyIDEA, implement it for our customers and provide support.
