File IQ 10.4.2

New Features and Updates

File IQ

This release expands File IQ alerting with more granular configuration, new security alerts, a new Alert Inspector dashboard, and improved synchronization across volumes.

  • Enhanced Alerting * : Configure alerts independently by Edge Appliance or volume, with custom thresholds and targeted users/groups. This added precision reduces false positives while preserving visibility into important activity.

  • Advanced Security Alerts * : Strengthen security monitoring with new alerts for unusual volume throughput, activity involving honeypot files, activity in selected directories or involving specified file extensions, and access from specified IP addresses or subnets.

  • New Alert Inspector Dashboard * : A new centralized dashboard provides visibility into alert status and events over time, with filters for edge appliances, volumes, alert types, paths, users, groups, client IP addresses, and file extensions.

  • Improved Scanning and Synchronization: Volumes now synchronize independently, so long-running scans on one volume no longer delay updates to others, helping keep File IQ data current across the environment.

  • Faster Dashboard Performance: The Inspector dashboard now handles larger queries more efficiently, and query optimizations reduce load times across the Last Accessed dashboards.

  • Platform Updates:

    • Upgraded Grafana to version 12.3.6

    • Upgraded Postgres to version 15

*    Note: Enhanced Alerting, Advanced Security Alerts, and the New Alert Inspector Dashboard are available only to premium File IQ customers.

Released June 26, 2026

Portal

New Features and Updates

Self-service SSO access visibility: Users can now view their own SSO-based role and permission access directly from the Roles & Permissions page.

The new My Access view shows mapped roles, the SSO groups received during sign-in, and whether each group maps to a Portal role. This helps users and administrators troubleshoot access issues faster while preserving existing role management permissions and security boundaries.

Released June 17, 2026

NEA 10.4 and NMC 26.2

New Features and Updates

S3 Edge Bucket Restriction: S3 Edge now supports bucket-level access restrictions for S3 access keys. Administrators can assign granular permission roles to individual access keys on a per-bucket basis, enabling fine-grained access control. This enhancement improves multi-tenant security and data isolation while maintaining full backward compatibility.

Note: Existing buckets with no roles configured continue to work as before.

Improved Inline Encryption Performance: The optional inline encryption library introduced in release 9.3 is now enabled by default on all appliances. This library improves encryption and decryption performance, resulting in faster data protection (time to cloud) and faster retrieval of cloud data.

The front-end performance impact that previously made this library “opt-in” has been resolved. No additional action is required; existing and new appliances will automatically benefit from this change upon upgrading to 10.4.

Web Access Enhancements:

  • Bulk Delete Operation: You can now delete multiple files and folders, including nested files and folder content, with a single operation. Larger deletion jobs run in the background, so you can keep working without interruption.

  • Quick Access Menu: Account information, settings, and sign-out menu items are now available from the avatar icon in the top-right corner, making these actions easier to find and access.

  • Activity Tracking for Local Edit: A new activity view shows the status of files you’re working with in Local Edit, including uploads, downloads, completed actions, and items that may need attention. This provides you with greater visibility and confidence while using Local Edit.

Note: “Activity Tracking for Local Edit” is only available for Advanced Web Access.

Improved Oplock Performance: Improved file access responsiveness for workloads using AGFL-Opportunistic Locking with heavy read contention and occasional writes. The Lock Arbiter now directly notifies waiting clients when an oplock break completes, thus significantly reducing polling-related latency.

Expanded Support for Cache Striping at First Boot: Striping the cache across multiple disks allows Edge Appliances to exceed the performance or capacity limits of a single disk. Automatic cache disk striping at first boot now supports all hypervisors, including KVM, Xen, Nutanix, Scale, and AWS EC2, which were not supported in 9.3. GCP-based Edge Appliances do not yet support this feature. All devices must be the same size and present when the Edge Appliance boots for the first time.

Ransomware File System Data Collection (Opt-In Required): To better safeguard your data from ransomware attacks, Nasuni requests your permission to collect pseudonymized data on file system activity. Pseudonymization means that identifying details like file names, paths, and user information are replaced with consistent stand-in values before the data leaves your environment, so normal file system behavior can be modeled without exposing what the files actually are or who touched them. By allowing pseudonymized data collection, you’ll be contributing to the fight against ransomware and helping Nasuni improve your ransomware defenses and those of the entire Nasuni community. Your file system activity is pseudonymized before it's collected. Nasuni never collects the contents of your files, and all information is handled with strong security measures and respect for your privacy.

  • To participate in this research effort, please enable the service from the NMC-> Account Status page.

Note: Participation in this research will be enabled on all appliances and volumes.
