Windows Client 1.5.13 reads MDM policy from the machine-scoped registry hive instead of the per-user hive. If you manage the Client with Intune or another MDM, learn how to import the updated ADMX template and migrate your policy.
Alice signs in with Google and Okta. Same email address. Different identities. Which one got production access? In this post we answer this question and more by exploring the challenges of multi-provider identity in zero trust applications.
Announcing the new user interface for the Firezone portal, designed to be more intuitive, faster, and more accessible.
Filter-aware routing on clients fixes a long-standing overlapping-resource bug, the macOS menu bar app stays running under memory pressure, smarter RTT-aware relay selection, and improved Linux network-change detection.
A 25% reduction in client and gateway CPU usage from connlib performance optimizations, Google Workspace group filtering for directory sync, and smaller fixes for DNS forwarding and relay reliability.
Faster sign-ins from distant regions via regional read replicas, automatic tunnel-service recovery on Windows and Linux, OS-native connection-failure notifications on clients, and browser-based authentication for headless clients.
Multi-region infrastructure with database read replicas and Postgres clustering. Portal performance improvements with Bandit HTTP server and WebSocket rate limiting. Enhanced partition tolerance for gateways and relays.
Major portal architecture refactor collapsing umbrella apps, authentication system restructuring, relay connection reliability improvements, and database performance optimizations.
DNS over HTTPS support, Swift 6.2 upgrade for Apple clients, Wayland support for the Linux GUI client, and various Gateway reliability improvements.
Firezone will undergo scheduled maintenance on Saturday, December 6, 2025 from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM Pacific Time to roll out major improvements to authentication, directory sync, and user and group management. We expect only a few minutes of downtime.
October delivered substantial improvements to Gateway observability, Linux networking stack refinements, and new deployment mechanisms. This month's work focused on implementing comprehensive flow logging, addressing routing conflicts through tiered routing tables, and introducing native Debian packages for easier deployments.
September brought significant improvements to Firezone's networking stack, administrative tooling, and cross-platform reliability. This month's work focused on optimizing relay performance through eBPF, improving DNS resolution behavior, and enhancing the admin portal's visibility into client and Gateway states.
We're making some changes to the way Internet Resources work to improve security and performance. Migrate your Internet Resources by March 15, 2025 to avoid any interruptions.
Firezone's data plane extensively uses the sans-IO design pattern. This post explains why we chose it and how you too can make use of it.
We're making some changes to the way DNS Resources are routed in Firezone. These changes will be coming in Client and Gateway versions 1.1 and later. Continue reading to understand how these changes will affect your network and what you need to do to take advantage of them.
We chose Tauri over other frameworks because it was the fastest way to get the Firezone Client working on Linux and Windows.
Firezone's approach to DNS works a bit differently than one might expect. One question we often get from new users is, "why do my DNS Resources resolve to a different IP address with Firezone enabled?". Great question -- read on to find out.
Firezone 1.0 GA is now available! Also in this update:
Firezone 1.0.0-pre.9 is released! In this update:
Happy new year from the Firezone team!
After a long year of building, we're incredibly excited to announce 1.0 beta testing for Apple and Android platforms. Firezone 1.0 is an entirely new product with a brand new architecture that includes many of the features you've been asking for. To summarize just a few:
More enterprises are turning to open source software (OSS) to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and extend their competitive advantage. The core technologies chosen by organizations often persist for decades, so decisions that IT leaders make today are bound to affect their organizations’ ability to function and adapt in the future — whether that’s one year, or 10.
The number of employees working remotely is accelerating, so secure remote access should be a large part of any organization’s cybersecurity strategy. Secure remote access lets remote and hybrid employees work from anywhere in the world, on any device, without compromising your organization’s network, data, and system security.
Firezone comes from humble roots.
When we launched on Hacker News nearly two years ago, we never envisioned Firezone to be more than a simple tool for managing your WireGuard configurations.
Today, I'm excited to announce we've closed the first public issue on our GitHub repository, more than a year after it was originally opened: Containerization support! We're also releasing preliminary support for SAML 2.0 identity providers like Okta and OneLogin.
As the first post on our new blog, we thought it'd be fitting to kick things off with a release announcement. So without further ado, we're excited to announce: Firezone 0.5.0 is here! It's packed with new features, bug fixes, and other improvements — more on that below.
