Secret Server 11.7.000000 Release Notes
New Features
QuantumLock
Secret Server’s quantumlock is a feature that provides an additional security layer by protecting secret data using asymmetric encryption (a public/private key pair) where the private key is a human-generated password. This feature is independent of regular permissions, Secret Server login access, or physical access to the machine running Secret Server.
A shortcut way of thinking about quantumlocks is as an extra password for secrets that is held by a set group of users. In addition, both the password and the group of users are reusable for other secrets. In addition, quatumlocks future-proof our digital security infrastructure against the advancing capabilities of quantum computing.
Quantumlock is an upgrade of the earlier doublelock feature. Besides the name change, the difference is quantumlock offers the option to use a quantum-safe algorithm for encapsulation to protect the private key, specifically CRYSTALS Kyber-1024, which is designed to counter the potential threat from quantum computers to current encryption methods.
Usability Improvements
Left Navigation Panel
With this release, we have made several improvements to the left navigation sub-menu to provide a better user experience. Some of the most common configuration settings have been moved to the top of the menu. For more information about the latest changes, please see Main Navigation Drawers.
Improved Search
The main search is greatly improved. It now includes content search results as well as users. A status bar shows the full folder path for long secret-folder paths. Highlighted search categories include:
- Content
- Favorites
- Folders
- Secrets
- Users
Form Usability Improvements
Overall form information density is improved—forms have less white space between rows.
Configuration Redesign
Our configuration redesign has been available as a preview feature for several versions, and is now fully released.
More content from standalone configuration pages is available directly within the configuration page, as well as section, setting and value search, and is available in Settings > Search configuration
Enhancements
New for GA:
- Enhancement: Improved performance of Secret Search when searching within a folder.
- Enhancement: Custom proxied launchers can now be mapped to a secret’s list fields which behaves as an allow-list restriction. This is only allowed without the launcher’s «Additional Field» enabled. Only one list field can be used in the mapping.
- Enhancement: Applied several SSH Proxy optimizations to increase performance and throughput.
- Enhancement: Added a warning because WPF allows launching to a freeform <user input> url, which is not recommended.
- Enhancement: Users with «Force Check-in» Permission can now always force secret check in, including the secrets that failed a password change on check-in. Previously, that required «Force check-in» and owner permissions on the secret.
- Enhancement: Password fields on a secret view now indicate if the secret has a password that is non-compliant.
- Enhancement: Added two new password requirement rules that enforce the amount of character repetition allowed in passwords.
Carried over from EA:
- Enhancement: Numerous grids were updated to used the enabled/disabled chip pattern.
- Enhancement: The secret dependencies page was updated. In addition to improved usability, you can filter by groups and run bulk operations across those groups.
- Enhancement: The Dependency Changers page was updated
- Enhancement: The user management user-list grid was updated. It now allows you to perform a bulk action on all users, not just the visibly loaded ones.
- Enhancement: The group list grid was updated.
- Enhancement: Discovery analysis now includes scan results since last run, which is useful for seeing what has succeeded or had an error since the last run.
- Enhancement: A discovery computer-scan results tab was added that allows for searching local computer-scan successes and failures.
- Enhancement: Session recording agent pages were updated.
- Enhancement: ticket system pages were updated.

- Enhancement: Diagnostics pages were updated.
- Enhancement: Bulk actions in grids now shows bulk actions at the top of the grid.
- Enhancement: Added search text filter to launcher grid.
- Enhancement: Simplified legacy pages› left navigation design. Removed obsolete setup left navigation menu.

- Enhancement: Platform users can now use step-up MFA to validate their identity when resetting QuantumLock passwords.
- Enhancement: Added a new setting to the ticket system configuration to optionally avoid prompting for a comment when «Comment not required» is configured.
- Enhancement: Added support for near-real-time processing of Platform user and group updates in Secret Server.
- Enhancement: Added a link to configuration audits on the Remote Password Changing page.
- Enhancement: Added a running log to disaster recovery so progress and duration per table can be tracked during replication.
- Enhancement: Added an event subscription called «Disaster Recovery Replication Success.»
- Enhancement: Added auditing of password change schedules.
- Enhancement: Folders in favorites quick access are now filtered when searching.
- Enhancement: Improved HSM cryptography by adding support for AES 256 encryption. This ensures that all keys protecting the secret key will be at the same strength for organizations requiring this level of encryption.
- Enhancement: If an Azure Active Directory configuration in directory services becomes corrupt, you can now view and update the credentials to fix it.
- Enhancement: improved internal security checking around launchers.
- Enhancement: Improved SSH proxy block-command handling in VIM.
- Enhancement: Launching a secret now opens in a dialog allowing launch to occur without leaving the grid or current page. Restricted actions like checkout can be performed in the dialog.
- Enhancement: On the Proxying Configuration page, you can now automatically generate new SSH proxy host keys.
- Enhancement: Platform configuration settings were added to disaster recovery.
- Enhancement: Secret search performance improvements. The secret grid now only requests extended fields that are showing. When column selections are updated, a new request is made only if the extended field choices have changes.
- Enhancement: Secrets grid modal on the Secret Erase Requests search page now auto-scrolls.
- Enhancement: The login policy now supports line breaks.
- Enhancement: The secret search API now has a comma-delimited filter parameter for template IDs, which allows searching beyond IIS URL limits compared to the existing array version. Both are still available.
- Enhancement: The user profile allows for date and time format setting.
- Enhancement: Updated the toast message displayed when saving user preferences to accommodate screen readers.
- Enhancement: Users are no longer redirected from the licensing page.
- Enhancement: When Secret Server Cloud is Platform integrated, there is now an «Add from External Directory» option in secret sharing that allows searching directory sources from Platform to add users or groups.
- Enhancement: Added new optional parameter «
nobus=true
» to the healthcheck endpoint. This allows a faster response in situations where no lookup of the bus status is required. - Enhancement: Adjusted the password compliance validation job to process more secrets on each run.
- Enhancement: Discovery port scanner now aborts if elapsed time expires prior to windows TCP handshake. Discovery port scanner will now also log a helpful message if the windows TCP stack aborts due to reaching the windows internal max syn retry count.

- Enhancement: Added a note to audits when the system disables a Secret Server user.
- Enhancement: Added an SDK link.
- Enhancement: Added the table tbTerminalConnectionHistory to the list of tables that is handled by the database cleanup consumer. It will periodically delete any records over a certain age, which can be customized by the user.
- Enhancement: Custom proxied launchers can now be mapped to a secret’s list fields which behaves as an allow list restriction. This is only allowed without the launcher’s «Additional Field» enabled. Only one list field can be used in the mapping.
Bug Fixes
New for GA:
- Fixed an issue when a syslog server is configured to use a DE and is having connection issues, it can trigger a restart of the DE, interrupting proxy sessions. Now, the syslog circuit breaker does not trigger a restart of the DE.
- Fixed issue with SecureCRT failing to connect to terminal with public key and 2FA on.
- Adjusted the endpoint `/api/v1/secret-access-requests` for better performance.
- Fixed an issue where going to Platform groups and removing (disabling) a group and then searching Platform and re-adding that group made a duplicate instead of enabling the existing group. Additionally, Platform group synchronization now ignores all disabled groups when making membership changes.
- Fixed an issue where a DE unhandled exception disconnected all SSH Proxy users.
- Fixed an issue where if a group has been imported from Platform from an AD source and was then added into directory synchronization as an AD group, it re-used that Platform group rather than creating a new group.
- Fixed an issue where the launcher icon could show when launchers were not allowed.
- Fixed Start Date and Queue Date on «pipeline activity» when viewing an individual run.
- Reduced the frequency of pre-audit validation errors.
