Aembit has released the Aembit CLI, a command-line interface that allows you to inject credentials into your CI/CD pipelines. Compatible with GitLab, GitHub, and now Jenkins.

Aembit now supports Server Workloads with a wildcard hostname.
This enables you to simplify your server workloads in a flexible and well defined manner.
As of Agent Controller version 1.24.xxxx, Aembit has enhanced Agent Controller to automatically close insecure HTTP ports when you enable TLS. This update streamlines security by ensuring only encrypted connections are active.
When you enable TLS, Agent Controller now automatically:
- Opens Secure Ports: 443 (or 5443 on VMs) and the secure Prometheus port 9091.
- Closes Insecure Ports: 80 (or 5000 on VMs) and the insecure Prometheus port 9090.
This automation removes the manual step of closing insecure, vulnerable ports, preventing potential misconfigurations and enforcing a more secure, “secure-by-default” posture.
Aembit has applied security enhancements to Agent Controller version 1.24.2485 in this release, including:
- Disabling insecure HTTP ports when you enable TLS.
