At N&#8209;able, we\u2019ve been listening closely to partners and IT pros who need enterprise-grade capabilities for their Linux environments and we\u2019re excited to give you a sneak peek at what\u2019s coming soon to N&#8209;central.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Whether you\u2019re managing a mixed environment or fully embracing open-source infrastructure, the upcoming Linux enhancements are built to give you more control, better security, and broader support.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Patch and Vulnerability Management for Linux<\/h2>\n<p><span>Managing updates across <a href=\"https:\/\/www.n-able.com\/solutions\/patch-management\/windows\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Windows<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.n-able.com\/solutions\/patch-management\/mac\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mac<\/a> devices is already a strength of N&#8209;central\u2014and we\u2019re bringing that same power and automation to Linux. Soon, you\u2019ll be able to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>Automate patch approvals and deployment for supported Linux distros<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Leverage vulnerability insights to prioritize security patches<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>View compliance and update status from a centralized dashboard<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Failed Patches view \u2014 Do Linux Patches Fail? <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>Think of it as giving your Linux fleet the same TLC you already give to Windows. Feature parity (or function parity) across Windows, Mac and Linux is our focus. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span>Integrated Take Control for Linux Devices<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span>Remote support for Linux has traditionally lagged in IT Operations\u2014until now. With upcoming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.n-able.com\/products\/take-control\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Take Control<\/a> support:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>Technicians will be able to initiate secure remote sessions to support Linux endpoints<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Troubleshoot issues, update configs, or provide hands-on support<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>All while maintaining a fairly consistent workflow alongside Windows and Mac<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>This is a game-changer for MSPs and IT teams supporting developers, infrastructure engineers, or education labs running Linux.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span>Distro Diversity: Support for 8 different Linux variants<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span>Linux isn\u2019t just one thing\u2014it\u2019s many different flavours. And N&#8209;central is getting smarter about which variants you rely on. Today we will support:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>AlmaLinux<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>CentOS<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Debian<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Ubuntu<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>(With support for 3 or more additional distros to be revealed soon.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>This multi-distro support means you won\u2019t be locked into a particular flavor of Linux. Whether you&#8217;re dealing with legacy CentOS systems or moving to AlmaLinux or RHEL for commercial support, N&#8209;central will be ready.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span>Why does all of this matter to you?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span>Managing Linux has often required an entirely separate toolkit or worse, a manual process. With these updates, you\u2019ll be able to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>Standardized patching and remote access across all OS types<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Reduce security gaps in your open-source environments<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Offer Linux management as a value-added service to new and existing clients<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>Our limited Tech preview is right around the corner, as of publishing this, so you could reach out to <a href=\"mailto:NCpreview@n-able.com\">NCpreview@n-able.com<\/a> if you\u2019re interested in learning more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Stay Nerdy,<\/p>\n<p><em>Jason Murphy\u00a0is the Head Nerd for N\u2011central and Efficiency at N\u2011able.
