# October 2025

> Itential Cloud release notes for October 2025, including Platform 6.1 and Platform 6.0 support.

Itential Cloud added several new features.

## New features

* **Canvas Debug Mode** — Test workflows without external dependencies. Mock task behavior, simulate different execution paths, and validate logic before deployment — no complex test data setup required.
* **Improved system stability** — Enhanced performance under high load and updates to third-party packages.
* **Expanded authentication support** — Integrations now support additional authentication methods.
* **Lifecycle Manager (LCM) support** — Automate and manage large numbers of LCM instances.
* **Project improvements** — Better visibility into project references, especially across different environments.
* **Enhanced security and deployment**:
* **Stronger security posture** — User-defined encryption keys and OAuth 2.0/OpenID Connect support give you more control over authentication and data protection.
* **Faster deployment cycles** — Automated component discovery and validation across environments eliminate manual configuration errors.
* **Clearer troubleshooting insights** — Enhanced integration responses help your team resolve issues more quickly.
