It’s that time again this year: we are currently working on the next bigger INUBIT release. Even though we don’t want to release it until the middle of the year, we can already tell you now: there’s a lot in it for you! 🚀

KEYCLOAK AND 2-FACTOR AUTHENTIFICATION.

Communication between INUBIT clients and servers is being switched from user- and password-based to token-based authentication. This has already been made possible by the integration of Keycloak in INUBIT 8.0. We are now taking the next step to further increase the security of communication and pave the way for 2-factor authentication.

SAY HI TO THE NEW CREDENTIALS MANAGER.

The new Credentials Manager, which will replace the Password Manager with an extended range of functions, will offer support for trust and keystores in addition to the central management of passwords. More are to follow, with the aim of being able to use the Credentials Manager even more on system connectors in future.

UPDATE OF THE CLUSTER MANAGER.

The Cluster Manager will also be boosted in terms of security: on the one hand, this is ensured by encrypted cluster communication in the network. In addition, authentication ensures that only certain nodes are allowed to join a cluster. The entire cluster can thus be configured more securely against external attacks.

READY FOR TOMCAT 10.

There are still a few technical hurdles, but we are confident that we will be able to overcome them in time. With the aim of making the Process Engine ready for Tomcat 10.

COMMUNICATION VIA REST.

Bye bye, SOAP. Welcome REST. We will completely switch the internal SOAP interface for communication between Workbench and Process Engine to REST.
