New Features & Enhancements
Per-App VPN Support for iOS Devices with Intune: Configure iOS Clients to route traffic from specific apps through the Cato Cloud, while all other traffic stays outside the tunnel. This selective tunneling approach removes the need for Always-On and route-based Split Tunnel policy.
Enables secure access to corporate applications without enforcing full device tunneling
Users can run native iOS apps that don't require inspection or control outside the tunnel
Reduces performance overhead and avoids unnecessary traffic inspection
Simplifies compliance with BYOD and mobile use cases
Supported from iOS Client v5.8 and higher, deployed with Microsoft Intune
Coding Agents Policy Manages AI Agents Activity: Protect coding agent use with centralized controls for prompts and tool use. The new Coding Agents Policy page helps you prevent sensitive data exposure and unsafe actions by letting you monitor or block risky activity across supported local agents.
Requires AI Security for Users license
Android Work Profile Support with Intune: Securely connect Android Work Profile applications to the Cato Cloud while Personal Profile traffic bypasses the tunnel and uses the device’s local network connection. Selectively route traffic for managed corporate apps while separating corporate and personal traffic on the same Android device, and apply Always-On enforcement only to the Work Profile scope.
Requires deployment using Microsoft Intune and Android Work Profiles
Requires app traffic routing to be managed by the Android OS and MDM profile
Supported from Android Client v5.5 and higher, deployed with Microsoft Intune
New Windows Client v6.8.2: During the week of June 14, 2026, we will begin rolling out the Windows Client version 6.8.2. This version includes:

Configure DNS Protection Threshold for Newly Registered Domains: DNS protection detects DNS requests to domains that were recently registered and may not yet have an established reputation. To give you more control over how aggressively DNS Protection identifies and blocks risky domains, configure a threshold to block domains registered within the last 7, 14, 21, 30, or 60 days.
