Release Notes — January 31, 2026
Vulnerability prioritization is here — your vulnerability lists now rank issues by a combined priority score, so you can focus on what matters most. We also shipped global search, a refreshed details view, and several new authentication options rolling out soon.
New Features
Section titled “New Features”Vulnerability Prioritization
Section titled “Vulnerability Prioritization”Vulnerabilities now carry a priority score that combines severity with asset criticality. Your homepage widget highlights the highest-priority vulnerability group, and all vulnerability lists sort by priority within each severity level — so the most urgent issues surface first.
Global Search
Section titled “Global Search”You can now search across vulnerabilities, assets, and other resources from anywhere in the application. Use the new search bar to quickly find what you need without navigating through menus.
Scan All Assets
Section titled “Scan All Assets”A new “Scan All” button lets you trigger a scan across every asset of a given type in one click, making it faster to ensure complete coverage across your organization.
Remediation Steps for All Vulnerabilities
Section titled “Remediation Steps for All Vulnerabilities”Every vulnerability now includes clear remediation guidance directly in the details view. You no longer need to leave the platform to understand how to fix an issue.
Hunts Filter Creation
Section titled “Hunts Filter Creation”You can now create and apply filters directly within the hunts data grid, making it easier to narrow down events during threat investigations.
Rules Tab for All Users
Section titled “Rules Tab for All Users”The SIEM Rules tab is now visible to all users with appropriate permissions, giving your full team visibility into active detection rules.
Exclude Scheduled Scans
Section titled “Exclude Scheduled Scans”You can now filter out scheduled scans from your scan views to focus on manually triggered or ad-hoc scans.
Manage Discovered Artifacts
Section titled “Manage Discovered Artifacts”You can now ignore or delete discovered artifacts directly from the asset inventory, giving you more control over what appears in your workspace.
Standalone Container Scanning
Section titled “Standalone Container Scanning”Container registry scanning can now run independently of a connected cloud account, supporting registries that are not tied to a specific cloud provider.
Detection Rule Engine Enhancements
Section titled “Detection Rule Engine Enhancements”The detection engine now supports the Sigma rule format with SigmaHQ compatibility and field mappings for cloud audit logs. This means a broader library of community-maintained detection rules can be used alongside your custom rules.
CAA Record Guidance
Section titled “CAA Record Guidance”Domain scan results now explain the value of Certificate Authority Authorization (CAA) records and how they help protect your domains from unauthorized certificate issuance.
Improvements
Section titled “Improvements”- Refreshed vulnerability details view — Updated code highlighting, improved button contrast in dark mode, and consistent column display across all views.
- Smarter default filters — Vulnerability groups now exclude ignored and resolved items by default, reducing noise.
- Improved hunts data grid — Better tooltips, improved event description layout, and upgraded grid interactions.
- Updated vulnerabilities data grid — The new data grid is now the default, replacing the legacy version with better performance.
- Scan failure visibility — Scan history now shows a breakdown of failures by scan type, with monitoring to catch systemic issues faster.
- Improved onboarding — Clearer onboarding steps, the checklist now properly dismisses when completed, and signup validation errors are more visible.
- Automated fix improvements — The automated fix system now handles new files correctly, shows clearer error messages, and the S3 bucket policy fixer supports more configuration patterns.
- Faster artifact processing — Scan completion times are reduced thanks to faster software artifact processing.
- Secret handling — Improved tracking when a single secret has multiple associated vulnerabilities.
- Removed manual scan limitation — You can now trigger scans whenever needed without hitting a limit.
- Architecture graph empty states — Helpful messages now appear instead of a blank screen when no architecture data is available.
- Clearer SIEM email configuration errors — Better error messages when setting up email notifications for security detections.
- Updated terms of service link and refreshed email templates.
