Qualys Cloud Agent Application Release 2.3

July 02, 2025

With this release, we are introducing the following new features and enhancements for the Qualys Cloud Agent application.

Support for IPv6 Addresses in Agent Scan Merge

With this release, we have added support for IPv6 Addresses while configuring the Agent Scan Merge. Now,  you can provide the IPv6 addresses, subnets, gateways, and DNS suffixes to specify the Cloud Agents for enabling the agent scan merge feature.

This enhancement has extended the scope of the Agent Scan Merge feature to a broader range of assets.

Updates for SwCA Scan Profile

We have updated the SwCA Scan Profile creation user interface to introduce a new option for defining the SwCA Scan scope. Now, you can select the Include Directories for Running Processes and Installed Applications to launch a quick SwCA scan only for the active processes and directories.

Also, we have made some cosmetic changes to the SwCA Scan Profile creation window for an easy and enhanced user experience. The following table illustrates the changes made in the SwcA Scan Profile creation window.
