Data Protection and Security Toolkit – Release v2.24.0

Improvements & Updates

• “Check rules on issue” enhancements:
  Now renders a new table with “Check case” functionality. This allows users to verify if a rule matched and view the exact content detected. The search logic is now aligned with the general search, ensuring consistent results.
• Suppress Jira notifications during search:
  Users can disable issue watcher notifications (for create/update issue or update comment operations) directly from the Configuration page. (Not applicable for Confluence).
• Audit logs redesign:
  Changed from a table view to a text-based view. This simplifies debugging and provides a clearer overview without navigating across multiple pages.
• Execution time in history header:
  Added a field showing how long a search took, helping users better understand performance.
• Content-updated search moved to worker:
  Offloaded processing to workers to reduce server load and improve stability when working with templates.
• Rate limiting with Redis:
  Request counting is now managed with Redis across all instances. Previously, due to random load balancing, limits could vary (30–120 requests). This change enforces consistent, reliable request limits.
• Optimized rule creation from library:
  Adding rules generates less traffic, reduces load, and improves performance. The “Check all rules” option was removed due to new per-template limits.
• New limits for rules and actions:
  Each template is limited to a maximum of 50 rules and 50 actions. This ensures stable performance and keeps search logic efficient.
• Trigger template validation:
  “Triggered by event” templates cannot run more frequently than once every 10 minutes per instance, reducing redundant searches and preventing server overload.
• Upgraded to the latest version of ACE.
• Pagination limit introduced:
  Page size is now capped at 50, improving response times and ensuring system stability.
• RTK Query timeout adjustment:
  Tuned for smoother interaction between users and the application.
• Search endpoint in History update:
  Migrated to a new search endpoint, replacing the deprecated one.
• Improved timeout handling for searches:
  Timeout checks now run every minute, stopping templates or executions that exceed thresholds.

Fixes

• Improved user data handling in content-updated templates:
  User identity is now validated via JWT token instead of instance URL, providing greater accuracy and security.
• Validation for “Check rules on issue” (Confluence):
  Fixed incorrect validation behavior.
• Search progress tracking:
  Now correctly displays the user who initiated the search and shows accurate progress details.
• Sentry logging improvements:
  Added contextual information to identify how many users are affected by an issue.
• Template list refresh:
  The templates table now reliably refreshes after an execution finishes.
• Redirect optimization:
  Redirects now occur instantly without briefly flashing the dashboard.
• Optimistic updates fixed:
  Rules, actions, and announcements now update correctly after create/edit/delete operations. Previously, new endpoints caused unintended re-renders.
• Configuration page crash fix:
  Resolved an error when the page was unmounted and remounted, caused by context handling in react-hook-form.
• Ignore list delete button restriction:
  The delete option is now disabled when the application is unlicensed.
• Locale handling fix:
  Resolved an issue where German was shown by default if English wasn’t explicitly set. Now English is always the default, and German only appears if selected.
