Changelog

Material platform updates for HailBytes SAT and HailBytes ASM. Minor security patches and incremental improvements ship continuously to marketplace deployments and aren’t individually called out here.

  1. HailBytes ASM — Platform Launch

    HailBytes Attack Surface Management Platform

    Continuous external reconnaissance and vulnerability-assessment platform, deployable in five minutes through AWS Marketplace and Azure Marketplace. Built on the reNgine engine with a modernized cloud-managed deployment model.

    • Modernized container infrastructure. Rebuilt Docker deployment with updated base images, improved health checks, and faster scan engine initialization.
    • AI-powered finding analysis. OpenAI and self-hosted Ollama (NVIDIA / AMD GPU) for triage and contextual summarization.
    • Improved scan engine pipeline. Subdomain enumeration, port and service scanning, vulnerability detection, and change tracking running on a single coordinated pipeline.
    • Enhanced reporting. Structured findings with deep-link routing into Jira, Slack, and any SIEM that accepts webhook or syslog input.
    • MCP server with 16 tools. Native Model Context Protocol support for AI-agent orchestration via Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.
    • Government cloud support. AWS GovCloud and Azure Government deployments at launch.

  2. HailBytes SAT — Platform Launch

    HailBytes Security Awareness Training Platform

    Self-hosted phishing-simulation and security-awareness training platform built from the ground up for enterprise deployments. Deployable through AWS Marketplace and Azure Marketplace at $0.24/vCPU/hour, with no per-seat pricing.

    • Recurring training campaigns. Schedule sends across segments with frequency, difficulty, and audience controls.
    • Interactive post-click quizzes. Built-in training modules shown to employees the moment they click a simulated phishing link.
    • Branded certificates of completion. PDF certificates produced per-employee for compliance evidence.
    • Per-tenant branding and OIDC SSO. Logo, favicon, colors, support URL, email-from name, and identity-provider configuration all per-tenant for MSSP multi-client deployments.
    • AI-generated phishing templates. OpenAI and Ollama options for generating campaign templates without vendor template lock-in.
    • Audit-log surface. JSON and CSV export plus REST API and webhooks for direct SIEM ingestion.

  3. Site & Content

    Site Refocus & Content Pruning

    Older content from the prior product generation was retired ahead of the platform relaunch. The site was reorganized around two products (SAT and ASM) and three customer profiles (in-house security teams, MSSPs, and pen-test firms), with the educational content stack — tutorials, blog, glossary, role playbooks — rebuilt for the launch.

How Updates Reach Your Instance

HailBytes is a marketplace-managed deployment. Minor updates — security patches, dependency upgrades, scan-rule refreshes, template-library additions — ship continuously to running instances without administrator action and without a separate version bump.

Material updates that change behavior, add a top-level capability, or affect compliance evidence are announced here, in the blog, and via the monthly newsletter.
