Release: v2025-01-10
OneFirewall WCF Server release
In response to requests from the alliance ecosystem, OneFirewall has released significant updates enhancing the management of WCF Agent and Reporting capabilities. These updates include:
Active Toggle
Allows users to enable or disable the execution of the WCF Agent for a specific instance directly through the Web Interface or via APIs
Config.json Management
To address the need for viewing, updating, and deleting WCF Agent configurations on the server side, OneFirewall now enables platform users to seamlessly manage key settings—such as sync time, score thresholds, and rule sets—directly through a JSON editor in the Agent Status Console. Any configuration changes made are automatically applied during the next execution cycle of the WCF Agent.
Additionally, the config.json file on the agent side now only retains essential data, removing configuration details related to how the WCF Agent interacts with firewalls, IDS, or IPS in the perimeter.
Furthermore, this update enhances security by ensuring that sensitive information, such as passwords and cryptographic keys, is no longer stored in the local file system. Instead, these secrets are securely encrypted and accessible only during the WCF Agent’s runtime, reducing exposure to potential security risks.
Real Time Usage Report
Users now have access to a dedicated monitoring dashboard that provides real-time insights into platform usage, including API access tracking and system activity. This dashboard also features a threshold alert system, notifying users if a WCF Agent fails to communicate with the server. Additionally, it offers visibility into data injection and contribution metrics for both on-premises and SaaS instances, ensuring seamless integration with the alliance ecosystem.
