N‑central Resources

The latest update of the N-Central Linux Agent now offers enhanced support for modern Linux environments, ensuring streamlined installation and robust performance across a broad range of distributions:

• AlmaLinux 9
• CentOS 9
• RHEL 9
• Debian 12
• Ubuntu 24

Identification and indication of suspected duplicates based for discovered and imported devices in N‑central to prevent and eliminate the duplicate devices.

When a user is linked to a new IDP provider (e.g., Microsoft Azure), their current session is automatically invalidated and is redirected to login again using your new or updated credentials.

If an SSO provider is removed (manually or via backend constraint), all sessions for linked users are invalidated and are redirected to login.

A new warning message has been added to the device import workflow to alert users when devices selected for import have discovery pre-check issues related to core services such as WMI, SNMP, NetBIOS, SSH, Registry Query, or Admin Share. The users will see the following warning message:

You have at least one device without access to some services. This may result in device inaccessibility and/or mapping issues. Are you sure you want to continue? For more detail, check the help article.

A new capability has been added to the Discovery Defaults page to help partners identify and manage devices with duplicate MAC addresses by allowing administrators to exclude such devices from the asset import process and preventing false positives due to hardware with shared or reused MAC addresses.

This includes major improvements to data reconciliation, monitoring, and performance to ensure greater data accuracy between N‑central and Analytics. Also, we have optimized event production processes for better system performance & real-time data accuracy.

Replace underlying operating system on N‑central from CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 9.4

Implementing a Native Halo PSA Integration unlocks unparalleled efficiency and connectivity across your IT operations. By seamlessly connecting your service management workflows with Halo PSA, you streamline ticketing, automate routine processes, and gain real-time visibility into critical business activities—all within a unified platform.

The Autotask SOAP API is planning to reach End-of-Life (EOL) to support a smooth transition, we are enabling the coexistence of both SOAP and REST APIs for the Autotask integration. This gives partners the flexibility to continue using their current SOAP 1.6 configurations while gradually migrating to REST, minimizing operational impact.

Continuous improvements to underlying libraries and dependencies used in the N‑central improve performance, ensure compatibility with modern operating systems, against emerging security threats. These updates are part of our ongoing commitment to delivering a resilient, secure, and efficient Unified Endpoint Management

Vulnerability Management to MSPs identify, prioritize and remediate software vulnerabilities

Easily categorize and organize devices with greater precision using the new Asset Tag capabilities in N‑central. This enhancement brings more flexibility and control to how partners manage and track devices across distributed environments.

We’ve made it easier to manage devices and get the information you need through the N‑central API:

• New! Add Devices Automatically

  You can now use POST /api/device endpoint to create devices through the API – ideal for scaling environments, automating deployments, and saving time.

• Improved! See Application Names More Clearly
  The GET /api/device/{deviceid}/asset call now includes the application name (application.displayName), so it’s easier to identify the installed applications on each device.

In earlier releases (24.6, 25.2, and 25.3), we introduced the ability to export user audit logs to a Syslog server, giving partners enhanced visibility into critical user actions across N‑central. In 2025.3.1, we’ve added support for auditing the following user-initiated events:

SSH Access:

• SSH Login
• SSH Logout

Scheduled Task Management:

• Scheduled Task Edited
• Scheduled Task Deleted
• Scheduled Task Enabled
• Scheduled Task Disabled

User Script Activity:

• Script Created
• Script Modified
• Script Deleted

We’re developing a new unified UI for N‑sight and N‑central, designed to streamline patch management across Windows, Mac, and Linux devices. This update focuses on enhancing the experience for Apple (Mac) environments, providing a consistent, intuitive interface for managing multi-OS environments with ease.

We are working on updating N‑central Components to meet NIST 800-171 controls for CMMC. This is going to a separate N‑central version enabling parters to cater to customers requiring CMMC compliance.

Streamline the integration between N‑central and REWST

Our goal is to make the central REST APIs easier for our partners to use, streamlining their workflows and addressing the initial limitations they have experienced. By focusing on greater efficiency and a more seamless experience, we are committed to supporting our partners’ success and reducing any frustrations they may have encountered.

We are consistently enhancing our warranty lookup process to provide accurate and reliable warranty details.

As part of our ongoing commitment to improving the experience of our partners, we will soon offer full support for Red Hat Linux 10.
