Enhancements for Authentication Using Smart Cards-Removal of Multiple PIN Prompts
You can now use the GlobalProtect app with smart card and ActivClient software without entering the smart card PIN multiple times when the Connect Before Logon (CBL) connection method is configured for the GlobalProtect app.
Previously, when ActivClient software was installed on the devices and Connect Before Logon was configured for the GlobalProtect app, end users were prompted to enter the smart card PIN multiple times while trying to connect using the CBL method.
This enhancement removes the multiple smart card PIN prompts received by the end users from the Windows identity provider and ActivClient while connecting the GlobalProtect app with the smart card along with ActivClient software. The GlobalProtect app now prompts the user to enter a PIN only once and the PIN prompt is from ActivClient software.
