Chapter 1 - Solution Overview
Introduction
DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise is an enterprise-level central management solution
for Endpoint Protection that enables administrators to manage security and authentication within Active Directory networksincluding data protection, access management and recovery. It represents an optimal
solution to multiple security needs, including:
• Strong Authentication for PC, application and RADIUS logon • Single Sign-On (SSO) for Enterprise applications
For further information on how
DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise
can help you solve your security needs, we have white papers, datasheets and case studies on our website at http://www.digitalpersona.com/ enterprise.Architecture
The conceptual architecture of DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise consists of four layers.
• Management – Provides an Active Directory-based solution for the enterprise; enabling the IT Administrator to configure, deploy and administer security policies throughout the organization.
• Security Applications – Provides pluggable applications and features that are managed through the DigitalPersona Pro management infrastructure.
• Clients - Workstation software installed on notebooks, desktops and shared-user kiosks.
• Credentials – Provides support for multiple authentication credentials that may be used in specified combinations for verifying the identity of users accessing managed computers and security
Components
DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise is a client-server product. It consists of server and client components that work within an existing Active Directory environment.
Server components
DigitalPersona Pro’s server components fulfill four main purposes:
• They allow IT Administrators to manage security and authentication policies via Active Directory
Group Policy Objects. For these purposes, DigitalPersona Pro includes various GPMC (Group Policy Management Console) extensions, installed under the Software Settings and Administrative Templates nodes, to link product policies and settings to Active Directory containers.
• They provide centralized, server-side authentication of various types of credentials (e.g. fingerprints,
smart cards, bluetooth, one-time passwords etc.). For these purposes, DigitalPersona Pro runs authentication services within your domain and receives authentication requests from managed computers.
• They allow centralized backup and roaming of computers’ and users’ credentials and passwords. For
these purposes, DigitalPersona Pro uses Active Directory as a database of relevant data.
• They also allow other general administrative tasks, including: • Access recovery into locked workstations
• Deployment of license activation codes.
The main server components of the DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise product are briefly described in the following table, and more fully described in the referenced pages.
Server component Purpose Page
Pro Enterprise Server Provides domain-wide, centralized administration of Pro clients and enables strong authentication through various credentials, such as Bluetooth tokens, Windows passwords, fingerprints, smart cards and more.
22
DigitalPersona Defender Enables two-factor authentication in workstation clients, and works with any OATH-compliant hardware token.
57 Pro Administration Tools Provides additional tools for administration of various
DigitalPersona Pro features and utilities including License Management, GPMC Extensions, Access Recovery, Attended Enrollment and the Password Manager Admin Tool.
Chapter 1 - Solution Overview
Compatible workstation clients
The DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise solution supports the following clients:
• DigitalPersona Pro Workstation for Enterprise - This primary client enforces security and
authentication policies on managed Windows computers while providing intuitive access to end-user features and functionality. It may be centrally managed by Pro Enterprise Server, or installed as a stand-alone product.
• DigitalPersona Pro Kiosk for Enterprise - This specialized kiosk clientprovides DigitalPersona Pro features for environments where users log on to a shared, common Windows account or kiosk.It is centrally managed by Pro Enterprise Server.
NOTE: The Pro Workstation for Enterprise and Pro Kiosk for Enterprise clients may be installed individually on computers or deployed through Active Directory GPO, SMS (Systems Management Server) or logon scripts. They cannot be installed through ghosting or imaging technologies.
DigitalPersona Pro Workstation for Enterprise
DigitalPersona Pro Workstation for Enterprise is the primary client application for end-users, providing an intuitive means for increasing both security and convenience through a variety of configurable options including enrollment and use of multiple credentials, and the use of automated logons for enterprise resources, programs and websites. For more details, see the chapter Pro Workstation on page 155.
DigitalPersona Pro Kiosk
Client user interfaces
Pro Enterprise Workstation contains two separate program interfaces; a user dashboard and an
Administrative Console. Access to the Administrative Console requires local administrator privileges. The Pro Kiosk client provides the same user dashboard, but does not have an Administrative Console.
Settings that govern the features and behavior of the user dashboard are in most cases controlled through Active Directory GPO settings. However, settings that are left “Not Configured” in Active Directory may be configured by the local administrator using the Administrative Console. These local settings will then be effective for all users on the specific computer.
Whenever a setting is configured (enabled or disabled) in Active Directory, the local administrator cannot modify the setting through the Administrative Console.
Chapter 1 - Solution Overview
Authentication and Credentials
The default, and simplest, means of authentication, i.e. making sure that you are a person authorized to access a computer or other resource, is your Windows account name and password. Authentication is generally required in logging on to Windows, accessing network applications and resources, and logging into to websites.
DigitalPersona Pro clients provide a means for the IT Administrator to easily setup and enforce strong authentication such as two-factor and multi-factor authentication using a variety of supported credentials. DigitalPersona Pro supports the use of various credentials for authentication, including Windows
passwords, fingerprints, smart cards, contactless cards, proximity cards, face, PIN, Bluetooth and One-Time-Passwords.
An additional Self Password Recovery credential may be used solely for recovering access to a managed client computer in place of a forgotten password.
Initial setup and enrollment of credentials is provided through a Setup wizard, or may be controlled by an administrator using Attended Enrollment.
Security applications
DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise security applications integrate with the basic functionality of the solution. Additional DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise security applications may be available. Contact your
DigitalPersona partner or reseller for further information, or go to our website at:
http://www.digitalpersona.com/enterprise/products/pro-enterprise.
Password Manager Admin Tool
The Password Manager Admin Tool simplifies and secures access to password-protected software
programs and websites through the use of managed logons that allow users to identify themselves through the use of any supported credential or combination of credentials specified by the administrator, as defined in the Authentication and Credentials topic above.
Administrators use the DigitalPersona Password Manager Admin Tool to create managed logons specifying information for logon and change password screens for websites, programs and network resources. These managed logons are then deployed to managed workstations, where they are accessible to the user through the Password Manager application and the mini-dashboard. Managed logons always take precedence over personal logons created by users.
Licensing model
DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise features and functionality as described in this Administrator Guide are included in the core version of the product, unless otherwise indicated.
The basic licensing model is the User license, which permits enrolling of user credentials by a specified number of DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise users. The specific DigitalPersona Pro SKU and/or package you purchased may entitle you to licensing of one or more additional modules or components that are
integrated with DigitalPersona Pro.
You should have received from DigitalPersona or from a DigitalPersona authorized reseller all of the license activation keys and/or files that are part of the package you purchased. Make sure you contact your DigitalPersona representative, should you have any questions. Some modules or optional components may need to be activated individually.
For information on other licensed versions of the product which may be available, and licensing for specific features, contact your DigitalPersona Account Manager or Reseller - or visit our website at:
http://www.digitalpersona.com/enterprise/products/pro-enterprise

The major differences between the 5.4.1 release and the previous 5.4 release are summarized below. 1 Delete License - A new feature available through the DigitalPersona Users and Computers snap-in
Chapter 1 - Solution Overview
Note that use of this command will delete all DigitalPersona credentials and other user data stored in Active Directory. The user account should no longer be used with DigitalPersona Pro, and the product should not be reinstalled in the same user account. If use of DigitalPersona Pro is attempted on this account, an “Access Denied” error will be reported due to previously locally cached credentials. See page 84.
2 User Query Tool - Additional functionality has been added to the User Query Tool which now returns a flag indicating whether a license was taken by a specified user, and provides the ability to delete the license. See pages 86 and following.
3 Kiosk access restrictions - Note that in versions prior to 5.4.1, kiosk access restriction through an identification list (see page 215) applies only to fingerprint access, and access through other
credentials, such as WIndows password, is not restricted. Beginning with version 5.4.1, the restriction applies to all supported credentials.
4
5.4 vs 5.3
The major differences between the 5.4 release and the previous 5.3 release are summarized below. 1 DigitalPersona Reporter has a brand new interface, with dozens of reports for compliance and
auditing, the ability to schedule, email and export in popular formats such as PDF, XLS, XML, and the ability to extensively filter and customize reports. Pre-canned reports support HIPAA, PCI and Sox compliance standards.

Deployment Overview
Here is a high-level overview of the steps required for initial deployment of DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise Server on the domain controller for a Windows 2003/2008 Server network.
Upgrading from Previous Versions
Before upgrading from a previous version, it is critical that you refer to the DigitalPersona Pro Upgrade Notes available at http://www.digitalpersona.com/support/reference-material/pro-upgrade-notes/.
Direct upgrades from DigitalPersona Pro for Active Directory versions previous to 4.4.3 are not supported. If you need to upgrade from a version prior to 4.4.3, you will need to upgrade to Pro 4.4.3 and then upgrade to Pro Enterprise 5.4. A Migration Guide is available from DigitalPersona or your authorized
Procedure Page
1 Extend the Active Directory schema to include attributes and classes used by DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise Server. Requires AD Schema Administrator rights. You can view the details of the changes that will be made to the schema by opening the file “dp-schema.ldif” located in the “AD Schema Extension” folder in the product package.
23
2 Configure each domain on which DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise Server will be installed by running DPDomainConfig.exe (located in the folder "AD Domain Configuration" in the product package). Requires AD Domain Administrator rights.
24
3 Install the DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise Server software. Note that this will set firewall rules necessary for the operation of DigitalPersona software.
26 4 (Windows Server 2003 only) Add DigitalPersona Administrative Templates to
OUs.
55, 133 5 (Optional) Configure Pro Enterprise Server for use with DigitalPersona Pro Kiosk,
if Pro Kiosk will be used in the domain.
Chapter 2 - Pro Server Installation
channel partner for upgrading from DigitalPersona Pro for Active Directory 4.4.3 to DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise 5.3.
Also, make sure to review the readme.txt files included with each component in the product package that you are installing.
Compatibility
DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise Server version 5.4 is compatible with the following DigitalPersona products:
• DigitalPersona Pro Workstation for Enterprise 4.4.3 and above. • DigitalPersona Pro Kiosk for Enterprise 4.4.3 and above. • DigitalPersona Password Manager Admin Tool 5.3.0 and above • DigitalPersona Privacy Manager Pro 5.51 or higher
• DigitalPersona Defender Server 5.7
DigitalPersona Pro Server Enterprise 5.4 should NOT be
• installed over (or upgraded to) DigitalPersona Pro Server for Active Directory versions prior to 4.4.3. • used in a mixed environment with Pro Server for Active Directory versions 3.x or 4.x or with Pro
Workstation/Kiosk 3.x/4.x.
If any previous version of DigitalPersona Pro Server for Active Directory was installed, the administrator should uninstall it and run the DigitalPersona Cleanup wizard (located in the product package) to delete all the previous DigitalPersona Pro data.
This release is not compatible with, and requires the uninstallation of any other DigitalPersona products on the same computer.
Extending the Active Directory Schema
Prior to installing DigitalPersona Pro Server, the Active Directory schema must be extended to create new attributes for the user object and new classes, as well as to make modifications to existing classes. The Active Directory Schema Extension Wizard automatically handles all of the necessary changes to the schema.
This schema extension is version 2. The schema extension version number is independent of the
DigitalPersona Pro product version number. Each Pro product release will identify the schema extension version it requires. This schema extension is global to the Active Directory forest.
If you want to view the script that is used to extend the schema (dp-schema.ldif), it is available in the product package at the following location:
The Active Directory Schema Extension Wizard must be run from the schema master domain controller, or the data may not replicate fast enough to allow the wizard to continue. If the data is not replicated fast enough, the wizard will terminate, and you should then wait one replication cycle before running the wizard again.
After the schema extension, and again after configuring your domains, you must wait for Active Directory schema replication to be completed. The amount of time this takes will depend on the complexity of your Active Directory structure.
You must have Schema Administrator privileges to run the Schema Extension Wizard.
To run the Active Directory Schema Extension Wizard
1 Double-click DPSchemaExt.exe, which is located in the Schema Extension folder in the Server installation package, to start the Schema Extension Wizard.
2 Read the terms and conditions on the License Agreement page. If you agree with them, select I accept
the license agreement and then click Next.

6 The wizard will extend the schema and provide information such as the class and attribute names. To close the wizard, click Finish.
The name of each new attribute and class added to the Active Directory schema follows Microsoft naming conventions. The names are assigned a “dp” prefix, which is registered with Microsoft.
The OID base, generated by Microsoft, is 1.2.840.113556.1.8000.651.
Configure each domain
For each domain on which you plan to install DigitalPersona Pro Server, you need to run the DigitalPersona Pro Active Directory Domain Configuration Wizard, which configures the required domain-specific data including the necessary cryptographic keys.
Running the wizard requires administrator privileges on the domain controller.
You should run this wizard only once on each domain where Pro Server will be installed.
Chapter 2 - Pro Server Installation
Running the wizard a second time during a single replication period will result in corrupted Server data, and any DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise Servers in the domain will be unusable.
After running the Domain Configuration wizard, domain level permissions to enroll/delete fingerprints are reset to the default, i.e. Allow.
To run the DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise Domain Configuration Wizard
1 Double-click DPDomainConfig.exe, which is located in the Domain Configuration folder in the Server installation package.
2 Read the license agreement that displays and, if you agree to the terms and conditions, select I accept

settings to Active Directory containers. These policies and settings are described in the chapter, Policies and Settings on page 99.
In releases prior to 5.2, administrative templates were automatically copied to the default folder for administrative templates during installation of DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise Server,
• On Windows Server 2003, this folder is C:\Windows\inf.
• On Windows Server 2008, the folder is X:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions.
Beginning in release 5.2, these administrative templates are no longer copied as part of the Pro Enterprise installation. They are now part of the DigitalPersona Pro Administrative Tools, GPMC Extensions component, which may be installed on any Active Directory aware computer.
Configuring DigitalPersona Pro Server for Pro Kiosk
Configuration Steps
Complete the following Pro Server and Kiosk installation and configuration steps in the order shown below. Specific instructions for configuration are described in the following sections and additional pages as referenced.
Complete the following
1 Install DigitalPersona Pro Server, 5.x or higher version. This includes performing Schema
Extension, Domain Configuration and the Server installation as specified on pages 23 and following. If previous versions of DigitalPersona Pro Server were installed in the domain, you should run the Domain Configuration Wizard, but should not run the Schema Extension Wizard again in this case.
2 Install the DigitalPersona Pro Administration Tools. You do not need to install all of the included Administration Tools components,. However, the GPMC Extensions component must be installed. See Administration Tools on page 55.
3 Create an OU for each kiosk and assign computers to the kiosk OU. See Creating the OU for the Kiosk on page 29. By default, the entire domain is considered as one kiosk. You may want to set up multiple, separate kiosks.
4 Assign kiosk permissions. By default, all domain users are allowed Kiosk permissions. You can restrict identification to specific groups or users by following the instructions in the chapter Identification List on page 215. Note that by design, AD Domain Administrator will have access even if not granted permission on an Identification List. However, you can change the permission for the Domain Administrator from Allow to Deny for any specific kiosk.
5 Create a Shared Account in Active Directory and specify the account information either by GPO or on individual kiosk computers. See Kiosk Shared Account Settings on page 29 and Adding Shared Account Settings Using GPO on page 29.
6 Install DigitalPersona Pro Kiosk on kiosk computers. See Pro Kiosk installation on page 46 for instructions.
Chapter 2 - Pro Server Installation
Configuring Kiosk GPO Settings
Perform fingerprint identification on server
The GPO setting Perform fingerprint identification on server must be applied and enabled for all Pro Kiosk clients that will be using fingerprint credentials. For further details, see Perform fingerprint identification on server on page 121.
Kiosk Shared Account Settings
At the kiosk level, whether it is the domain or an OU, you must specify the kiosk Shared Account information. For more information, see Adding Shared Account Settings Using GPO on page 26.
Creating the OU for the Kiosk
When you install DigitalPersona Pro Server and Pro Kiosk, the entire domain is considered as one kiosk unless you complete further configuration.
To create multiple kiosks in a domain, or to limit the usage of the kiosk to specific computers only, you should create an organizational unit (OU) for each kiosk and then assign computers to the OU. You might create several kiosks where each kiosk is associated with its own OU. If computers in the same OU are geographically located in different sites, each OU per site is a kiosk.
Specifying a Shared Account for the Kiosk
Pro Kiosk requires an account, known as the Shared Account, that is specified on every kiosk computer. Account information includes the user name, domain name and password for an Active Directory account. You should have one Shared Account per kiosk with a Password never expires setting.
You can configure the kiosk Shared Account by supplying the kiosk Shared Account information through GPO settings, as described below.
If the kiosk Shared Account information is distributed through Group Policies settings, all computers that belong to the selected object level in Active Directory, such as OU, Domain, or Site, receive the kiosk Shared Account settings.
Pro Kiosk automatically assigns the “Impersonate a client after authentication” user right to the kiosk Shared Account. This right allows programs that run on behalf of that user to impersonate a client. This right allows Pro Kiosk to authenticate multiple users while using only one logon session for the Shared Account.
Adding Shared Account Settings Using GPO
Note that beginning with Pro Enterprise 5.3, the AD location of these settings have been changed. The settings previously found at Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/DigitalPersona Pro Client Kiosk Administration have been replaced and are included for backward compatibility only.
The new location is Computer Configuration/Policies/Software Settings/DigitalPersona Pro Client/Kiosk Administration.
You can use the Group Policy Editor to modify DigitalPersona settings. For the Kiosk Shared Account Settings, at the OU level for the kiosk, open the Kiosk Administration node and double-click Kiosk Workstation Shared Account Settings. Specify the following values:
• Kiosk Shared Account user name
• Kiosk Shared Account NetBIOS domain name • Kiosk Shared Account password
The Shared Account information will be enabled for all computers in the OU.
Assigning Kiosk Permissions
In situations where additional security restrictions are necessary or desirable, you can modify the default permissions to allow or deny specific groups or users from using each kiosk. The default installation permits every domain user to use all kiosks in the domain and no additional configuration is necessary. For an example of how to restrict identification, see Restricting kiosk identification on page 122.
Password Manager Admin Tool settings
If you plan on using managed logons with DigitalPersona Pro Kiosk, the templates created in the Password Manager Admin Tool must be accessible by the Shared Accounts that are used to access the kiosks. Make sure that the templates are available through GPO settings to the kiosk Shared Account rather than kiosk user accounts.
Chapter 2 - Pro Server Installation
Changes Made During Installation
Running the Schema Extension Wizard adds the following data to Active Directory.
Active Directory Containers
The Schema Extension Wizard installs two subcontainers in the Active Directory System container. They contain information administrators can use to verify and administer the DigitalPersona Pro Server installation. In the ADUC (Active Directory Users and Computers) Snap-in, ensure that Advanced
Features is selected from the View menu in order to view the System container.
The new containers installed are the BAS (Biometric Authentication Servers) container and the Licenses container.
Published Information
DigitalPersona Pro Server publishes its service using the following properties:
• Service Class Name, set to Authentication Service.
• Service Class GUID, set to {EFE03FEC-2A6C-4DFB-9B56-E3BC77F32D7F}. • Vendor Name, set to DigitalPersona.
• Product Name, set to UareUPro.
• Product GUID, set to {48F74E29-1CC0-468F-A0A0-8236628A5170}. • Authentication Server Object Name, the DNS name of the host computer.
• Service Principal Name, a unique name identifying the instance of a service for a client. • Schema Version Number, the version of the Active Directory schema extension.
• Product Version Number, the version of DigitalPersona Pro Server software. • Product Version High, set to [current version].
• Product Version Low, set to [current version].
• Keywords for searching the server are Service Class GUID, Vendor Name, Product Name and Product
GUID. The keyword values are the same as the property values listed in this section.
The Server publishes its service in compliance with the Active Directory Service Connection Point specifications.
DNS Registration
The use of DNS registration enables DigitalPersona Pro Workstations to locate Pro Servers without needing additional local configuration to do so. If your DNS Server supports dynamic registration, DigitalPersona Pro Server registers itself with the DNS using the service name, _dpproent.
The format of the DNS resource records for DigitalPersona Pro Server is: • _dpproent._tcp.[domain] 600 IN SRV 0 100 0 [server name]
• _dpproent._tcp.[site name]._sites.[domain] 600 IN SRV 0 100 0 [server name]
Pro Server calculates site coverage based on the availability of other Pro Servers on the domain (as well as sites configured for the domain) and then creates Service Resource Records (SRV RRs) for the domain and sites it covers.
Settings in the DigitalPersona Pro Administrative Template govern whether or not Pro Server utilizes dynamic registration. For information on this and other DNS related settings, see pages 122 and following.
Automatic Registration
By default, DigitalPersona Pro Server registers itself with DNS every time Pro Server starts, is
Chapter 2 - Pro Server Installation
When DigitalPersona Pro Server unregisters itself, it removes only the records it has created during automatic registration. Records entered by the administrator will be unaffected.
Automatic Registration may be disabled through a GPO setting.
Manual DNS Registration
If your DNS Server does not support dynamic registration, or if dynamic registration is disabled through a DigitalPersona Pro GPO setting, an administrator can manually register the Pro Servers by entering the DNS resource records in the format shown above.
You can view the default values of settings created during Pro Server setup by opening the U.are.UPro.DNS file in Notepad. It is located in the Program Files\ DigitalPersona\bin folder.
To manually register a Pro Server in Microsoft DNS
1 Open the DNS console and expand the Forward Lookup Zone.
2 In the left pane, select and then right-click on [domainname], and select Other New Records in the context menu.
3 In the Resource Record Type dialog box, click on Service Location, and then click the Create Record button.
4 In the New Resource Record dialog, set the following values:
• Service: _dpproent • Weight: 100
• Port Number: 0
• Host offering this service: domaincomputername.domainname.com 5 Click OK to save the settings and return to the main DNS console window. 6 Under the same [domainname], expand the _sites key.
7 In the left pane, select and then right-click on Default-First-Site-Name and select Other New
Records from the context menu.
8 Repeat steps 3 through 5 for each Pro server that you want to register.
Improving Performance
The Priority and Weight settings can be modified to achieve better response time and load-balancing in the _dpproent.Properties dialog box, which is accessible by double-clicking _dpproent in the DNS Console. The _dpproent SRV RRs can be found in the following paths in the DNS Console:
• DNS/[DNS server]/Forward Lookup Zones/[domain]/_tcp
• DNS/[DNS server]/Forward Lookup Zones/[domain]/sites/[site name]/_tcp
If your DNS does not support dynamic registration, you will have to add these SRV RRs manually. For your convenience, these entries are stored in a file, UareUPro.DNS, which is located in the folder in which you installed DigitalPersona Pro Server.
Configuring DNS Dynamic Registration
Additional parameters for configuring DNS registration are available in the DigitalPersona Pro
Administrative Template when added to the governing GPO. These settings are described beginning on page 122.
Uninstalling DigitalPersona Pro Server
DigitalPersona Pro Server can be uninstalled from the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel in Windows if you have administrator privileges on the domain on which Pro Server is installed. The software is listed as, “DigitalPersona Pro Enterprise Server version [version number].”
When you uninstall the Server software, the published information (described in Published Information on page 29) and the DNS SRV RRs (described in DNS Registration on page 29) are removed.
