Features & Enhancements:
Security:
Multi Factor Authentication: We've added the ability for all users to add an 'Authenticator' application as an additional security measure when logging into Volaby.
Once turned on, users will need to enter a time-based code when prompted on login. This is known as a TOTP.
For users, these settings are available in a refreshed 'Account Settings' window, accessible via the account menu or 'My Elements' page.
At the organisation level, you are able to define user privilege levels that MFA is required and enforced for within the Admin Console > Security tab. We recommend that organisations enforce MFA for 'Admins' and will be rolling out this requirement to all organisations later this year.
Why not SMS?
Our MFA functionality is a future-proofed solution for Volaby and your organisation, keeping users and your organisation's data safe. SMS's can be spoofed, are unencrypted and face delivery issues when service is restricted. This solution functions even if a user has no telecommunications connectivity, or has no phone number.

User Profile Window:
Redesign & Refresh: We've refreshed the User Profile Dialog to make it even easier to access the information you need, and have more control over it. This includes: tabs replacing vertical content, new content windows (see below) and greater manager control over user configuration.
Profile Information: Included more detailed information about a user's application and profile approval date. This view now includes all information contained within a user's profile task.
Activities & Programs: You can now add users directly to activities and programs from the user profile window.
Availabilities: New availabilities information window and added the ability to configure and set availabilities on behalf of volunteers.
Profile Picture: Ability for admins to set profile pictures on behalf of volunteers
Flagged & Retired: Make it more clear to managers which users are flagged and retired when accessing the profile window.
Impact: 'Years of Service' added to a user's impact metrics.
Account Settings Window:
Redesign & Refresh: We've redesigned the account settings window for all users to enable greater ease-of-use, access to functionality and support for more settings options in future.
Authentication: Authentication tab window added to user settings, enabling all users to add additional levels of security to their account.
Fixes:
Prevent 'Profile Approved' email from occasionally sending when application has already been approved.
Resolve error where users were unable to manually add volunteers if there were only one program.
