Cerberus by Redwood, version 2025.3 introduces several key features to enhance security and streamline user management, including the ability to search by description for local user management, simplifying access control. Additionally, new OAuth 2.0 support for SMTP with Microsoft and Google addresses end-of-2025 changes from these providers that will require token-based verification for email, ensuring continued service functionality for our users sending emails with Cerberus while enhancing overall security.

What’s new?

Search by description for local user management

Cerberus admin managing users locally can now search for users by profile description, in addition to username. This new functionality simplifies and streamlines access and permission management by making it easier to find and assign permissions based on a user’s profile description.

OAuth 2.0 support for SMTP with Microsoft and Google

Ensure service continuity and enhance overall email security with OAuth 2.0 support for SMTP with Microsoft and Google. By the end of 2025, Microsoft and Google will require OAuth 2.0’s token-based verification for their SMTP (email) services and will no longer accept a username/password for authentication. This update is to ensure users will be able to continue sending emails via Cerberus using Microsoft and Google domains without running into authentication issues.
