UpGuard’s granular notification system supports many customisable settings that can be overwhelming at first glance. To ensure more effective use of this powerful system, we’ve overhauled the grouping, naming and descriptions of each type of notification. Now, setting up your email and in-app notifications on the Manage Notifications screen is easier to keep track of and understand.

Additional risks for domain hijacking

We have added additional risks for domains at risk of hijacking. If a domain's DNS records point to an expired or unregistered domain, attackers can register that domain and gain access to part of the target's domain namespace. In this release we’ve added subdomain takeover detection for the following services: Agile CRM, Strikingly, Anima, Surge.sh.

Ability to bulk-update custom vendor attributes

If you’ve been using custom vendor attributes to store important information such as contract expiry date, you will now be able to bulk-edit attributes from the vendors screen. Similar to how you manage tiers, labels and portfolios, this functionality will help you update and assign attributes more quickly and efficiently.
