v4.9.0 - A glass of champagne
Happy new year! This is the first release of the new year and so I figured "a glass of champagne" is cocktail enough right now.
This release has a lot of cool announcements, but also a little bit of a branding touch. CyberDrain and CIPP never had separate logos. Our designer (The great Joe Martz, check him out at https://www.joemartz.com/) created a new logo for CIPP. That also come with some redesign of our dark mode and some interface facelifting, so everything looks better than ever.
Now that's not all the exciting news. Thanks to the Microsoft Graph team we also now have a very very cool announcement to make with this release; are you currently using a hosted version of CIPP? Then you can get access to features in the Graph API not available to anyone else yet. These are bleeding edge APIs. The Graph team is gracious enough to allow CIPP users access to these APIs. Want to be enabled for this? Contact our helpdesk.
Now lets jump into the new features shall we?
Alerts Alerts Alerts
Our Alerts engine has been revised, but not just a interface touch up here and a small change there. you now have the ability to create any alert you want. You can use our preset alerts to get alerted whenever something happens, such as logons from countries you don't want, or mailboxes rules created where you don't want them. Cool thing about this alert engine? it's available on all subscriptions.
Now that's not all we've changed. Because our new engine allows you to select a specific action, generating a ticket is an action, a webhook, but also disabling the user involved in the log entry, or immediately running a BEC remediate based on your input. Zero click remediations, based on your own set of rules.
For example, if I want to block a user, disable their rules, reset their password when a new inbox rule is created, and the path contains RSS? All I do is create this:
And that'll take care of everything for me. The email, webhook, or PSA ticket will even include a log of actions taken.
Onboarding wizard-y
Onboarding tenants can be a challenge sometimes, especially when you haven't really taken care of your GDAP environments yet. We've made sure to ease this for you; Tenant onboarding now automatically adds missing groups, missing users, and it finishes everything for you. Use the onboarding wizard whenever you're adding a tenant to have a really good time. It removes all of the manual GDAP labour for you except accepting the invite.
Graph Explorer exploded
We've lit some fireworks under our Graph Explorer and that allows us to do so much cool stuff - The Graph Explorer now has more options and the ability to save any custom report you want. Found the perfect query to perform? no more typing it or copy and pasting links. Just save it as your personal preset:
IP Database
We've majorly revamped our IP database, We now report if an IP is a proxy or VPN IP, we can now report the exact location, we can report if it's a hosting provider or not, and all of that in a much faster manner than ever before. Had issues with our previous IPDB? check out the new one.
Other notable changes
- We've fixed a bug with the GDAP check not always returning the correct groups
- We've created more readable errors for CPV checks and refreshes so you know what to do next

- and many many more...
