To-do for DRACOON Enterprise Cloud users: Provide a branding for the new DRACOON web app now
The new DRACOON web app is expected to be available on the DRACOON cloud on December 12 and will then replace the current web app.
Your existing branding of the previous web app cannot be automatically transferred to the new web app except for the main color.

The DRACOON Branding web application is available for this purpose. You should use it to provide the new required branding resources in the coming days so that your users can continue to see your company logo, for example, after the switch to the new web app (on December 12).
We have prepared a comprehensive guide for you that will show you step by step how to provide your custom branding for the new web app.

Release of DRACOON version 4.13 on the DRACOON cloud: now one single authentication method per user
Previously, each DRACOON user could be assigned several authentication methods, all of which could be used for login (e.g. login either with an email address or via Active Directory username).
Version 4.13, deployed today on the DRACOON cloud, now uses the new authentication rule that we announced a year ago:
From now on, each user will only be able to use exactly one authentication method assigned to him or her. This has the advantage that the user no longer has to choose from several authentication methods when logging in—a common source of errors up to now.
Starting with version 4.13, DRACOON automatically recognizes which authentication method is to be used based on the entered username.
Reason for change and availability for on-premises customers
We made the change because evaluations showed that there were hardly any users with multiple authentication methods.
A frequent scenario is, of course, that several authentication methods for different user segments are to be used in one DRACOON, e.g. via Active Directory for users from the organization and via email for partners. Exactly this requirement can still be met with the new rule.
Customers running DRACOON on self-managed servers (on-premises) will receive the new authentication rule with DRACOON LTS 2019-2, which is expected to be released in December.

In addition, files from DRACOON that were previously downloaded to the device can also be reopened offline.

Release: DRACOON for Android v5.3
Version 5.3 of our Android app released today offers many new features.
The app is now integrated into the Share interface of Android—a frequent user request. In this way, for example, a photo from WhatsApp can be quickly and conveniently uploaded to DRACOON via "Share".
In addition, you can now create upload shares from within the app and specify all settings available in DRACOON for download and upload shares. Download shares can now also be created in encrypted data rooms with the new DRACOON app for Android.

Release: DRACOON for Windows/Mac v3.0.1
Exactly two months after the release of the previous version 3.0.0.13469 of DRACOON for Windows/Mac, the next major update is available: version 3.0.1.14013.
The new version uses Cryptomator for encrypted storage of the offline cache for the first time, which further increases security and eliminates potential problems with long path names under Windows. The login for the new version is now exclusively based on OAuth. The new version also contains performance enhancements and fixes for issues reported by customers.
We recommend a timely update to the new version either through the update mechanism integrated in DRACOON for Windows/Mac (which, however, requires administrator rights) or via automated software distribution, e.g. on the basis of our MSI installation packages.

Release: DRACOON für Windows/Mac v3.0.0.13469
Version 3.0.0.13469 of DRACOON for Windows/Mac, released today, is the first major update since the introduction of offline synchronization four months ago.
The new version contains important optimizations and numerous fixes for problems reported by customers, especially with synchronization. Although the vast majority of these problems were rare, we still recommend that you install or roll out the new version as soon as possible, as it will significantly increase the overall reliability of the client. New settings are also available.
