07-31-2023 Release (P-5)

Support for Semi-Colon Separated Email Aliases

We have updated our CSV upload syncs to support email aliases that are separated by either semi-colons or commas. Previously, only comma-separated email aliases were supported. With this update, you can use a comma or a semi-colon to separate multiple email aliases in your CSV file.

Copying Over "Limit Permissions to Review" Setting

We have updated our Clone Campaign feature to copy over the "Limit Permissions to Review" setting from the original campaign to the cloned campaign.

July 2023 Releases (O13 - P4) 

Improved Access Review Assignment Logic

To further refine our system's capabilities and adhere to best practices, we've updated our Access Review assignment logic.

The enhancement incorporates the 'no self review' setting into the process of enabling the “Assign Review to Resource Owner” or “Assign Review to Permission Owner” options. This means that if the 'no self review setting is active, users will not be assigned to review their own resources or permissions, even when these options are enabled.

 Permission Revocation Status Monitoring

With this enhancement, we now support applications that do not immediately revoke a permission. Different applications handle revocation requests in their own timeframes, and this update allows us to better accommodate those workflows. Zilla will continue to monitor these applications until the requested revocations are executed. To provide greater visibility into this process, we have added a new state: "Revocation Initiated".

When you see this state, it means that the revocation has been initiated within the application. Following this, Zilla performs a sync, and once the application completes the revocation, the permission is effectively removed from the account.

This new state helps keep you informed about the status of revocation requests, giving you more control and a better understanding of the process.

Conditional Skipping of Terminated Users During Directory Sync

Our platform now has the capability to conditionally exclude terminated users during a directory synchronization process. This enables more accurate and streamlined syncs by preventing unnecessary processing of users who are no longer active within your system.

This new functionality is managed by a tenant flag, which allows for enabling or disabling this feature based on your operational needs. The flag is controlled by the Zilla Customer Success team.

Bulk Editing of Account Type 

We've made an enhancement to our "Edit Accounts" feature. Now, the "Account Type" field can be edited in bulk, allowing users to set or update a value across multiple accounts at once.

Bug Fix: Prevention of Permission Descriptions Disappearance After Sync

We've resolved an issue where permission descriptions were inadvertently removed during a synchronization process. Please note that we have several different permission types in Zilla, and depending on the type, the handling is slightly different for its description. In some cases, updated descriptions may still be overwritten.

New Application Integrations

In July, we've expanded our already extensive lineup of over 500 app integrations by adding three new ones:

• ZUS integration with IT Glue, a cloud-based IT documentation platform.

• API-based integration with Duo Security, a multi-factor authentication and secure access platform.

• ZUS integration with ShieldQ, a secure document and data management platform 

Integration Enhancements and Fixes

• This month, we updated our Salesforce integration to improve the handling of specific scenarios. The system will now skip "Security Settings" and "Integrations" during the sync process when sufficient access to these data isn't available, ensuring a smoother and more efficient sync. Additionally, we have improved the handling of accounts with no permissions.

• We've improved the resilience of our GCP integration, providing you with a more seamless and reliable synchronization process. Previously, the sync process could potentially fail if a group's name was not available. We have addressed this issue by implementing a new logic to substitute the group's ID when the name is not available, ensuring the sync operation's success.

• We are committed to ensuring that our integrations remain up-to-date with the latest changes in their corresponding platforms. In line with this, we have updated our Threads ZUS integration and Google Analytics ZUS integration to support the latest user interface changes in Threads and Google Analytics.

• We have released an update to our Customer.io ZUS integration.

  Before this update, some users might have encountered issues with the Preview dialog ZUS sync showing a blank preview for team member sync.

06-19-2023 Release (O-12)

End-of-Campaign Notifications Enhancement 

We have enhanced the functionality of our end-of-campaign notifications. You can now send the application revocation reports to Technical Owners, Business Owners, and Campaign Monitors by email. Zilla also allows you to create a list of additional email recipients. The recipients can be pulled from a directory or added manually. This update complements the previously available option to send the application revocation notifications to ticketing systems and aims to improve communication and ensure that relevant stakeholders are kept in the loop.

API Integration: Databricks

In this release, we have introduced an API-based integration with Databricks, a cloud-based platform that provides tools for data engineering, data science, and machine learning.

Only accounts that match the specified types will be brought into and saved in Zilla. When the filter is applied, the data stored in Zilla will be updated on the next sync. When the filter is not specified, all the accounts will be synchronized by default. This enhancement enables more granular data retrieval and storage based on your needs. 

06-11-2023 Release (O-11)

Automatic Revocations in Github API Integration 

We have introduced a new feature in our Github API integration that supports automatic permissions revocations after an access review.

When permissions like group, repository, member, or outside collaborator are marked as "Revoke" during an access review, the system will now automatically revoke these permissions.

This enhancement aims to improve the security and governance of your repositories by ensuring that only the appropriate users have access.

Note: The automatic revocation feature does not apply to owner permissions. As of this release, owner permissions will still need to be revoked manually.

Updated Active Admin Integration 

We've refined the interpretation logic of the "No Aa Access" column in our Active Admin integration. With this update, the synchronization process is now streamlined to sync when there is access, correcting the previous behavior.

This improvement is designed to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of access management through Active Admin integration.

MedTek Integration Rebranded to Nimble 

The application, previously known as MedTek, has undergone a rebranding and is now called Nimble. We have updated our integration to reflect this new name. From this version onwards, you'll see references to Nimble instead of MedTek within the integration.

The functionality remains the same; only the name has changed.

Update to Aha API Integration: Sync Products as Resources 

We have updated our Aha API integration to synchronize products as resources instead of groups. This change aligns the integration more closely with Aha’s product-centered configuration, allowing for more streamlined and intuitive management of products.

By treating products as resources, users will experience a more logical mapping between Aha and our platform, which is expected to improve workflow efficiency.

SoD Policy Description Import via CSV Upload

We have introduced the ability to import SoD policy descriptions directly from your SoD documentation via CSV file uploads. The enhancement enables customers to integrate descriptions with their SoD rules, providing vital context and information directly within the Zilla interface. Here are the details:

• Description column: In the CSV upload file, a new 'Description' column is mandatory, but it can be left blank if there's no description to be added.

• Overwriting existing descriptions: If a description already exists in Zilla from a previous upload, it will be overwritten if there's a new description for the same policy in the uploaded CSV file. Please ensure to review the descriptions in your CSV file before uploading, to avoid accidental overwriting.

• First-In-First-Out rule: The first non-blank description read in during the upload becomes the default description for that SoD policy. Any subsequent descriptions, even if different or blank, will be ignored.

• Preservation of existing descriptions: If there's already a description for a policy in Zilla and no corresponding description in the uploaded file, the existing description in Zilla will remain unchanged.

Campaign Setting for Reviewer Reassignment Control

As part of our commitment to enhancing Zilla compliance capabilities, we have added a new setting for campaign monitors. This setting allows campaign monitors to disable the ability for reviewers to reassign items they are responsible for, ensuring items are handled as intended and preventing unnecessary reassignment. This enhancement makes it easy to meet an important compliance requirement under the Sarbanes-Oxley regulation. 

Key details include:

• New Campaign Setting: Campaign monitors can now choose to Allow or Do Not Allow reviewers to reassign review items.

• Default Setting: The default setting will be to Allow reassignments, ensuring no disruption to current workflows unless desired.

• Cloned Campaigns: The selected setting will persist for cloned campaigns.

• Visibility Restriction: If set to Do Not Allow, the assigned reviewer will not see the ability to reassign items, either individually or in bulk.

• Role-based Permissions: Monitors, Admins and Super Admins retain the ability to reassign items.

• Campaign Report: This new setting will be included in the campaign report for transparency and easy tracking.

As part of this release, this field will be populated with the current date. Moving forward, the exact date a policy was enabled will be recorded and shown.

Permission Sets on Child Permission Page 

To offer you a more comprehensive and efficient way to manage permissions, we have updated our Child Permission page. In addition to Groups, it now supports Permission Sets, providing a clear and detailed view of permission inheritance and effective permissions.

Key details of the enhancement include:

• Inclusion of Permission Sets: The Child Permission page now provides detailed information for Permission Sets, making it easier for application owners to understand and manage access rights.

• Comprehensive View: The new design provides an extensive view of inherited and effective permissions, clearly showing the additional access a user or account has based on their direct permissions.

Specifically, the Child Permission page can be accessed from the following areas within the application:

  • Application > Accounts > Permissions

  • Application > Accounts > Account Group

  • Application > Permissions > Permission Set / Group

  • Application > Groups > Group

Group Details Page Update: Tree View for Inherited/Effective Permissions

We have updated the Group Details page to offer a more user-friendly display of inherited and effective permissions. Now, permissions are displayed in a clear, intuitive tree-view format, simplifying the understanding and management of access rights. This layout effectively illustrates the hierarchical relationships of permissions, providing a comprehensive understanding of access rights.

We are excited to announce the addition of a new feature that allows admins to upload and configure Segregation of Duties (SoD) policies in Zilla. With this enhancement, admins can now create and manage policies tailored to their organization's unique requirements, facilitating informed decision-making during access reviews and compliance certifications: 

• Admins can now upload custom SoD policies, ensuring that their organization's specific needs and regulations are met.

• Zilla automatically evaluates the configured SoD policies on a daily basis, providing a continuous and up-to-date compliance status.

• Admins have the ability to add automated actions to their SoD policies. This includes sending notifications when violations are detected and alerting the appropriate personnel to promptly address potential issues.

 Please note that this new functionality requires configuration by our Customer Success team.

Enhanced policy landing page and category-specific policy overview

We’ve introduced UX improvements to the policy landing page and a new category-specific policy overview. This update now allows users to navigate and manage policies within their respective categories more efficiently:

• Use filters in the summary bar to view total policies and enabled policies within a specific category.

• When changing a policy's category, the policy will no longer appear in its original category table and will now appear in the newly assigned category.

• The ability to edit a policy remains unchanged with this update.

• No changes to the search feature; it remains the same as the current Policies page.

Enhanced AWS API integration with rate limiting for syncs

Our AWS API integration now supports rate limiting for AWS syncs. AWS rate limiting is a mechanism used by AWS to control the number of requests that a user or service can make to specific AWS resources or APIs within a given period of time. This enhancement ensures that syncs do not fail when the rate limit is hit on production. By implementing support for rate limiting, our AWS integration becomes more robust, providing a reliable and consistent experience for AWS users.

Custom GitHub URL support for OAuth authentication

We've enhanced our GitHub API Integration, which now supports OAuth authentication with custom GitHub host URLs.

The OAuth authentication process will then use this custom URL to send authentication requests instead of defaulting to github.com. This feature provides greater flexibility for organizations with private or self-hosted GitHub instances and helps streamline the integration process for various setups.

Streamlined 'Edit Policy' flow in Zilla Secure

We've made an improvement to the Zilla Secure 'edit policy' flow.

The pagination overrides will be set to {"cursorKey": "next_cursor", cursorPath: "response_metadata.next_cursor", "limit":"limit"}, which will help streamline the pagination process and ensure the data is displayed in a more organized and accessible format.

Bug fixes

• Zilla can now be configured to update existing users when their email changes in Okta, instead of creating a new user.

NEW feature! Custom actions

We've enhanced our identity security platform by adding the capability to create custom actions for Slack, Microsoft Teams, webhook, and email. You can now use custom actions as automated actions for Zilla Secure Findings or configure them as manual actions for both Findings and Accounts and Permissions search. For example, when Zilla identifies a new permission change, a Slack action can automatically post a message on your security team's channel requesting an additional review and even tag the reviewer. This new feature enhances automation capabilities and improves teams’ efficiency in remediating security and compliance issues.
