January 2020 Summaries

Over the past year, the Fleet project has seen significant growth and development, collaborating with organizations like Bloomberg and Security Onion to enhance its capabilities. With the transition of development to a new repository at github.com/fleetdm/fleet, the focus has shifted towards advancing the project as the premier management platform for osquery. This shift accompanies Kolide's decision to concentrate on its User Focused Security SaaS, discontinuing support for the original Fleet repository. Fleet Device Management, co-founded by Zach Wasserman and Mike McNeil, aims to build an open-core business model that expands the OSS Fleet offering while introducing enterprise-grade features. The release of Fleet 3.3.0 introduces significant updates, including file-carving capabilities and user creation in fleetctl, with a commitment to maintaining free access to existing OSS features. The community is encouraged to provide feedback and engage with the ongoing development to ensure continued progress and innovation.
