Changelog

What has been finished in NODE64 – newest first.

Released

Network devices and measurement network

  • Include switches, NAS, UPS and printers over SNMP – devices that cannot run an agent. Read-only, v3 with encryption.
  • Path MTU as a measurement type: finds the blockage that stalls TLS connections without any ping showing it.
  • World map of the measurement network with true great circles – without map tiles from third-party servers.
  • Probes show what they have contributed. No badge for merely taking part.

Broader detection

  • Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux in vulnerability matching, with their own RPM version rule.
  • FreeBSD: its own check set and matching via VuXML, FreeBSD's own catalogue.
  • fail2ban is assessed rather than merely counted: ban time, threshold, window, exceptions.
  • All fourteen log signals explained – and a command that shows the actual lines locally.
  • Where no matching is possible, the reason is now stated. Zero findings are not a result.

Evidence and billing

  • Security reports as PDF, per device and across all systems.
  • Mapping to BSI IT-Grundschutz and ISO 27001 – with "not technically verifiable" as a state of its own.
  • Your own details for the report cover page and for the salutation.
  • List and link invoices in the dashboard.

Operations and overview

  • Trends instead of snapshots: load, memory, disks.
  • Usage per partition, with history.
  • Traffic volume per network interface.
  • Reporting interval adjustable, within the plan.
  • Agent updates with signed packages and version display.
  • Security check switchable off per device – then nothing is collected at all.

Check catalog and vulnerability matching expanded

  • 247 checks covering hardening, operations, network, storage and containers.
  • Daily matching against the OSV vulnerability database, version-exact per package.
  • Python packages installed via pip are checked too – they do not show up in the system package manager at all.
  • Debian derivatives such as Parrot and Kali are mapped correctly to their Debian base.

NODE64 Sonar measurement network

  • Any device can volunteer as a measurement probe – no extra hardware needed.
  • Reachability, latency, route and DNS, measured from outside against your own systems.
  • Credits: taking part earns them, your own measurements spend them – with a daily allowance.

Plans and billing

  • Free, Supporter and Business – monthly or yearly, cancel any time.
  • Manage your payment method and invoices yourself, billing through Stripe.
  • Device count, retention and reporting interval follow your plan.

Agent, analysis and findings

  • A single program without dependencies, for seven architectures from Raspberry Pi to server.
  • Findings with reasoning, severity and concrete steps to fix them.
  • Fix script to download – per finding or for the whole device.

Account, dashboard and alerts

  • Sign in by magic link, optionally with two-factor confirmation.
  • Connect devices, group them and add your own details.
  • Team with invitations and separate permissions per group.
  • Alerts by email and webhook, with your own rules per device or group.
  • Versioned JSON API with your own keys.

Public website online

  • Home, features, pricing, contact and changelog are live.
  • Everything bilingual (German/English) with light and dark mode.
  • Legal notice, privacy policy, terms and withdrawal published as drafts.

What is being worked on next is on the roadmap. To the roadmap
