Day in brief

Private Access sensor 2.2.79 adds OTA updates, with a one-time installer requirement

Private Access has the period’s clearest operational change: sensor version 2.2.79 adds over-the-air updates alongside Kerberos, diagnostics, service-matching, and wildcard-matching improvements. The other updates refine Zscaler app-gallery terminology and add security guidance around External ID passkey samples.

  • The release history records version 2.2.79, released September 29, 2026, with over-the-air sensor updates, enhanced Kerberos security and diagnostics, SID-based service matching, and corrected wildcard matching. Upgrading from version 2.2.42 requires a one-time full-installer deployment to enable OTA updates; inbound TCP and UDP on port 1337 must be allowed, and IPv6 Kerberos traffic is blocked.

  • The tutorial now consistently calls the application Zscaler instead of Zscaler Authentication Service Provisioning, including its title, prerequisites, configuration steps, and app-gallery instructions. Administrators can use the shorter Zscaler name when locating the app.

  • The tutorial replaces Zscaler ZNet with Zscaler ZSNet throughout the title, prerequisites, gallery search instructions, and provisioning steps. Administrators following the guide should search for and select Zscaler ZSNet.

  • The integration guide now links to a sample for listing and registering passkeys and documents the delegated permissions for those operations. It also warns that deletion uses high-privilege application permissions and a client secret in browser code, so the sample is intended for test tenants only.
