Automated testing for upgrading to a new version of Fleet

Available in Fleet Free and Fleet Premium

Automated testing allows you to quickly and easily make sure that you can upgrade without unforseen consequences. Run the test with FLEET_VERSION_A=v4.16.0 FLEET_VERSION_B=v4.17.0 go test ./test/upgrade and see what happens when a Fleet server with version A is upgraded to version B! For more details, check out the ticket.

Improved security for Fleet Desktop

Available in Fleet Premium

Fleet Desktop uses a random UUID to authenticate to the Fleet server. While it's extremely unlikely to fall victim to a brute-force attack, it's always better to be safe than sorry. In order to combat that possibility, we've added rate limiting for all device authorized endpoints.

Show your end users a call to action in Fleet Desktop for failing policies

Available in Fleet Free & Fleet Premium

Show your end users a call to action in Fleet desktop for failing policies. The main goal of Fleet Desktop is to empower end users to take charge of managing the security of their enrolled device. If a device is failing a policy check, Fleet Desktop will now show end users useful information for resolving the issue and make it easy to check if they've fixed it.
