Reference library for Ketryx release notes

2.12

We're excited to announce the release of Ketryx 2.12, expanding users’ ability to collaborate across tools, manage vulnerabilities, and accelerate releases while maintaining compliance. This release includes a validated integration with Google Workspace for collaborative editing, enhanced vulnerability management, updates to the AI assistant, and performance improvements. These improvements help regulated teams move faster while maintaining compliance with standards like IEC 62304, ISO 13485, and ISO 14971.

Google Docs Integration

R&D and Quality teams work closely together to finalize release documentation, often collaborating on documents and spreadsheets in Google Workspace. Ketryx’s new validated integration with Google Workspace makes it easier than ever for regulated teams to share and collaboratively edit release documents. We are continuing work to extend this integration to also work with other types of documents (in addition to release documents). To enable this integration, set up your Google Workspace credentials in the Organization > Connections settings page. Learn more here.

AI Assistant

You'll notice improvements to the design of the AI assistant located in the sidebar of the Ketryx platform, which provides a powerful way to interact with Ketryx as you're working. Use the AI assistant to ask questions about your QMS, generate test cases, filter requirements, and automate tedious tasks, while always keeping a human in the loop. Consider trying one of these prompts:

• "Show me all requirements that are not yet approved"

• "Help me structure a template based on this existing specification document"

• "Create a detailed test case for [requirement]"

• "Create risk items that may result from these requirements"

Enhanced Vulnerability Management

Improvements to vulnerability management in Ketryx support robust postmarket surveillance processes and strengthen the cybersecurity posture of your organization, in light of regulations like the EU Cyber Resilience Act and recent FDA cybersecurity guidance. Vulnerability impact assessments can now behave like standard configuration items and appear on the All items page. This enables adding custom fields and relations to the vulnerability impact assessments to align with your organization’s cybersecurity management process. Like other configuration items in Ketryx, you can now reference vulnerability impact assessments across multiple projects (cross-project referencing) to support centralized vulnerability management and traceability between complex systems of systems.

Comments in Ketryx

Approvals depend on clear communication, and comments act as an integral part of collaborative systems. The ability to post a comment directly on items provides context and supports stronger collaboration, especially during the approval process of items such as vulnerabilities, which are managed outside project management tools like Jira. Comment and rejection ability in Ketryx keeps your communication centralized and documented, so you can easily see the history of each item and how it has progressed. This makes it easier to track decisions and speeds up review cycles across teams. Learn more here.

Performance

As we continue to onboard enterprise customers with a high level of complexity in their projects, we continue to focus on improving the performance of Ketryx, making page load speeds more than three times as fast and bringing down the typical page load time to under 3 seconds. This performance improvement allows users to work more efficiently in Ketryx, to manage large amounts of complex data, and to release faster.
