RDM - Personal Hub - Authenticator app

RDM - Personal Hub - Authenticator app

Hi,

I'm not sure in which forum I should post this, as the question is across the combination of products.
I'm already using RDM as my goto tool for remote management (ssh, teamviewer, anydesk, etc...) with an offline vault.
I also have a free personal hub space.
I wanted to test if I can use the Devolution ecosystem for my MFA/OTP needs:

  • an authenticator app or like option on Windows Android and IOS
  • synchronize all OTP across all platforms or devices (for 2 reasons: in case a device gets lost or resetted + convenience while working)
  • available when offline (without internet, in situations I'm working on isolated or secure networks)

Examples are: Authy (until they killed the windows app), Bitwarden, 1Password, ...

So my thinking was to use RDM on Windows, and the Authenticator App (or I guess this is the "Workspace app") on my IOS and Android devices.
Inside the Workspace App there seems to be an Authenticator module, and the Hub module

So far I found out that:

  • the Devolutions authenticator module in the workspace app does not SYNC both ways, it only does a backup TO the Hub, correct? so any change or addition made on one of the devices I'm using, is not synced across different devices
  • The alternative option would be to use RDM or the Hub module in the workspace app, but in both cases, those do not work when there is no internet connection.


Is that the expected behavior?

Hi, For your needs, Devolutions Workspace could be a suitable solution.

Regarding the OTP synchronization, when you sync with your Hub Personal, you can create an entry inside the "Authenticator app" folder. This will be synced within the Authenticator Space inside Workspace. Additionally, you can use Workspace with all the Spaces in offline mode. To ensure offline availability, simply visit the Hub Personal Space before going offline to download the necessary data into the cache.
