Q1 2026 Developer Diary
It’s that time again! We’ve put together our latest developer changelog for Q1 2026 to keep you up to speed with everything happening behind the scenes.

Retiring the "Liveshield"


The Liveshield was a dedicated page that allowed users to track live attacks on our infrastructure. As the service saw a significant decline in popularity over time, we have decided to discontinue it. Despite a final visual update recently, user engagement remained low, leading us to focus our resources on more high-impact features.

Real-Time Table Updates


We’ve implemented live updates for tables across all projects. While it sounds simple on the surface, this was a major technical undertaking. Our team had to overhaul several APIs and resolve complex performance bottlenecks. Now, data such as IP address lists, disk drives, and more update dynamically in the background. No more manual page refreshes required!

New Mail Logger


We’ve introduced a system that logs outgoing emails, allowing you to view them directly within the customer portal. For security reasons, sensitive user-specific data and IDs (such as Ticket or Invoice IDs) are masked in the portal view to ensure your data remains protected.


Custom NoVNC Console


By popular demand, we’ve integrated our own NoVNC console. You can now access it with a single click via the customer management panel. We’ve also added a handy "Sync Clipboard" button to make transferring text to the console seamless.


Enhanced Language Support


Language settings are no longer restricted to logged-in accounts. Since the start of the year, all visitors can choose their preferred language. Furthermore, our translation system now covers the entire homepage and all blog posts, ensuring a localized experience for everyone.

Additional Improvements at a Glance


- Squashed thousands of minor bugs for a smoother experience.
- Added comprehensive logs for Cloud Servers.
- Implemented a cooldown for OTP (One-Time Password) requests.
- Optimized backend mail delivery.
