Aembit now supports integration with CrowdStrike. This integration allows you to leverage CrowdStrike’s service to prevent Server Workload access from Client Workloads that do not meet an expected state.
For more information about this integration, please refer to the CrowdStrike Integration page on the Aembit technical documentation site.
The Aembit Agent Controller can now be installed in high availability configurations. Because the Agent Controller is a critical Aembit Edge Component that manages Agent Proxy registration and credential acquisition for Aembit Cloud access, HA support was necessary to ensure the continuous availability of the Agent Controller.
For information on installing and configuring Agent Controller in high availability environments, please see the Agent Controller High Availability page.
In an effort to ensure only Client Workloads that run in a secure environment can access Server Workloads, Aembit has enabled integrations with CrowdStrike and its CrowdStrike Falcon Sensor. CrowdStrike Falcon Sensor checks multiple items on the virtual machine (VM) to verify the VM is secure.
Several new feature updates and additions have been made to improve Aembit user experience. These updates include:
Aembit now supports Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) so users can provide different authentication methods. Users can:
Users may now deploy Aembit Edge Components to VMs (non-Kubernetes). This feature enables users to have options on how they want to deploy these components.
For more detailed information about this feature, please see the virtual machine Installation page.
Aembit has released a new feature for Credential Providers called “Dynamic Claims.” This feature allows you to set the Subject claim and Custom claims with either literal strings or dynamic values when setting up Credential Providers in your Aembit client tenant.
For more detailed information about Dynamic Claims, please refer to Dynamic Claims page
This feature is currently only supported for Vault integration.
