On March 11th, Bell Canada will no longer be available to emnify SIM cards.
There is no impact expected on overall coverage for Canada, as Telus will remain available. Telus and Bell have a RAN sharing agreement, ensuring no impact on geographical coverage.
Location Updates will be rejected for Bell network connection attempts, the SIM will attempt to connect to an alternative network, e.g. Telus or Rogers under the same IMSI.
Following up on our previous announcement from February 15th, we are happy to announce that OpenVPN connectivity has been enabled in both Frankfurt (eu-central-1) and Zurich (eu-central-2) regions and CloudConnect connectivity has been enabled in the Zurich region. CloudConnect will become available in the Frankfurt region as well during Q2 2024.
Please note that for these two new regions we have unified the naming and eliminated the variants with and without the "VPN" suffix.
Please also be advised that the aforementioned restriction that eu-central-1 and eu-central-2 are not included in the Automatic Breakout Region selection is still in place.
We are thrilled to introduce the latest additions to our IoT SuperNetwork, the regional breakouts in Frankfurt, Germany (eu-central-1 and eu-central-2).
These new local breakouts are now available in early access for all customers and caters specifically to enterprises with devices deployed across continental Europe.

Customers now have the option to connect to the eu-central-1 and eu-central-2 regions by selecting the regions in their service policy.
Important Note: Being in early access, the breakout does not yet support VPN functionality and does not adhere to the usual Service Level Objectives. Therefore, the breakout is also not included in the “Automatic Breakout Region” functionality.
All portal users now can import CSV files directly to the different Filters in Connected Device page for streamlined device management.
CSV upload functionality enhancing filtering and facilitates seamless integration with external systems and data sources.
For detailed instructions and limitations, please refer to our documentation available on the portal.
Have a great start for the New Year.

Factory Test Mode Now Available in emnify Portal

Clients with PLUS or PRO packages can now find factory test as one of the device mode options during the SIM registration process. This feature allows clients to deploy their devices and test the connectivity without activating the SIM. SIM activation only happens once the device consumes 100KB of data or 10 SMS, whichever occurs first. This allows clients to test out & activate devices at their own pace and avoid paying monthly subscriptions during the testing phase.
If this feature is relevant to your use case, consider purchasing our PLUS or PRO package. Alternatively, you can request a trial by contacting your Success Manager.

We're excited to announce our latest release, focusing on enhanced central user management across multiple workspaces in the emnify portal. This update, highly requested by our PRO tariff customers, significantly streamlines workspace management.
Key Features of the Latest Release:
  1. Central User Management: Clients can now assign different users to various roles across multiple workspaces through a centralized interface. This simplifies user management and improves overall administrative efficiency.
  2. Single Sign-On (SSO) Capability: This release introduces the option for clients to set up Single Sign-On for users across multiple workspaces. This feature enables a more secure and convenient login experience.
  3. Unified Login System: All users, including those who are not admins of the main workspace, can now access their workspaces with a single set of login credentials. The update eliminates the need for different emails with suffixes and prefixes, offering a more streamlined login process.
Interested in trying out the enhanced workspace functionality? Please reach out to your Success Manager for a trial or more information.

We are excited to announce a significant security enhancement in our platform with the introduction of mandatory multi-factor-authentication (MFA) via email.
What is MFA?
MFA provides an additional layer of protection for your emnify account by requiring a second form of authentication, such as a one-time code sent to your email.
Why mandatory MFA matters?
We are taking a proactive approach to protect the IoT ecosystem for our clients, employing the best security practices to enhance account security, prevent unauthorized access, safeguard sensitive data, and ensure compliance with regulatory security standards.
When is this happening?
We will begin enforcing MFA for small groups of customers in November. By January next year, mandatory email-based MFA will be required for all our clients.
Do I need to take any action now?
You don't need to take any immediate action. In the coming months, MFA will become mandatory for all users. Once it becomes mandatory for your organization, you will receive an email with a code when you log in.
What about my emnify credentials for OpenVPN or API authentication?
MFA will only be enabled for portal logins. Access via API and OpenVPN will remain unaffected.
If you currently use emnify credentials for your API authentication, we highly recommend transitioning to the use of an application-token to enhance your security.
For more information, please refer to our FAQ.
We understand that change can be challenging, but your security is our top priority. We're here to support you every step of the way. If you have any questions or need assistance with setting up MFA, please don't hesitate to reach out.
