Invalidate Sessions When Linking to new SSO IDP provider
When a user is linked to a new IDP provider (e.g., Microsoft Azure), their current session is automatically invalidated and is redirected to login again using your new or updated credentials.
Session Invalidation After SSO Provider Removal
If an SSO provider is removed (manually or via backend constraint), all sessions for linked users are invalidated and are redirected to login.
Device Import – Warning Message on Import for Devices Failing Discovery Pre-Checks
A new warning message has been added to the device import workflow to alert users when devices selected for import have discovery pre-check issues related to core services such as WMI, SNMP, NetBIOS, SSH, Registry Query, or Admin Share. The users will see the following warning message:
You have at least one device without access to some services. This may result in device inaccessibility and/or mapping issues. Are you sure you want to continue? For more detail, check the help article.
New UI for Identifying and Excluding Duplicate MAC Addresses in Discovery Defaults
A new capability has been added to the Discovery Defaults page to help partners identify and manage devices with duplicate MAC addresses by allowing administrators to exclude such devices from the asset import process and preventing false positives due to hardware with shared or reused MAC addresses.
N‑central Agent Expanded Linux OS Compatibility
The latest update of the N-Central Linux Agent now offers enhanced support for modern Linux environments, ensuring streamlined installation and robust performance across a broad range of distributions:
- AlmaLinux 9
- CentOS 9
- RHEL 9
- Debian 12
- Ubuntu 24
Analytics Data Veracity, Consistency & Performance Enhancements
This includes major improvements to data reconciliation, monitoring, and performance to ensure greater data accuracy between N‑central and Analytics. Also, we have optimized event production processes for better system performance & real-time data accuracy.
OS update to Alma Linux 9.x
Replace underlying operating system on N‑central from CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 9.4
Apple: End user live chat
Provides technicians the ability to launch a live chat with the end user on a device independent of a full remote control session.
Ability to Export the Discovered Assets for additional visibility
The ability to Export the Discovered Assets provides additional visibility and helps in validation of assets before importing. It enables our partners to quickly identify and validate the assets that may need attention before import.
Improved visibility into Duplicate Device names
N‑central now has indicators on Device Details View for duplicate device names and a new filtering option to identify all duplicates device names. This enhances the visibility into suspected duplicate device in N‑central.
Enhanced visibility into Agent check-in and viability
Visibility into Agent through the Last check-in time is instrumental to determine the duration of offline devices and take actions accordingly. It also includes visibility into the status of required services for agent like WMI, SNMP, NetBios etc. on discovered devices to prevent from going offline after import.
Native Halo PSA Integration
Implementing a Native Halo PSA Integration unlocks unparalleled efficiency and connectivity across your IT operations. By seamlessly connecting your service management workflows with Halo PSA, you streamline ticketing, automate routine processes, and gain real-time visibility into critical business activities—all within a unified platform.
Enable Coexistence of SOAP and REST APIs for the Autotask Integration
The Autotask SOAP API is planning to reach End-of-Life (EOL) to support a smooth transition, we are enabling the coexistence of both SOAP and REST APIs for the Autotask integration. This gives partners the flexibility to continue using their current SOAP 1.6 configurations while gradually migrating to REST, minimizing operational impact.
Security & Library Improvements
Continuous improvements to underlying libraries and dependencies used in the N‑central improve performance, ensure compatibility with modern operating systems, against emerging security threats. These updates are part of our ongoing commitment to delivering a resilient, secure, and efficient Unified Endpoint Management
New Vulnerability Management dashboard
Vulnerability Management to MSPs identify, prioritize and remediate software vulnerabilities
Asset Tagging
Easily categorize and organize devices with greater precision using the new Asset Tag capabilities in N‑central. This enhancement brings more flexibility and control to how partners manage and track devices across distributed environments.
Device Management API Updates
We’ve made it easier to manage devices and get the information you need through the N‑central API:
- New! Add Devices Automatically
You can now use POST /api/device endpoint to create devices through the API – ideal for scaling environments, automating deployments, and saving time.
- Improved! See Application Names More Clearly
The GET /api/device/{deviceid}/asset call now includes the application name (application.displayName), so it’s easier to identify the installed applications on each device.
User Audit Log Export – Additional Audit Events
In earlier releases (24.6, 25.2, and 25.3), we introduced the ability to export user audit logs to a Syslog server, giving partners enhanced visibility into critical user actions across N‑central. In 2025.3.1, we’ve added support for auditing the following user-initiated events:
SSH Access:
- SSH Login
- SSH Logout
Scheduled Task Management:
- Scheduled Task Edited
- Scheduled Task Deleted
- Scheduled Task Enabled
- Scheduled Task Disabled
User Script Activity:
- Script Created
- Script Modified
- Script Deleted
