We are happy to announce the latest release of NXLog Platform, version 1.13. This update adds NXLog Platform operating system support for Debian 13 and NXLog Agent support for legacy 32-bit Windows. Plus, you can now use NXLog Agent with the native macOS Keychain for secure certificate storage on Apple systems.
Read on for more details about these updates.
Deploy NXLog Platform on Debian 13
NXLog Platform 1.13 adds support for installation on Debian 13, the latest stable release of the Debian operating system.
If your organization standardizes on Debian, you can now run NXLog Platform on the latest release without having to maintain an older OS version. Debian 12’s standard support ends on June 10, 2026, after which it enters LTS status, covering only a subset of packages for security updates. Upgrading to Debian 13 ensures continued full security coverage.
Collect logs from legacy 32-bit Windows systems
NXLog Agent 6.14 is now available as a 32-bit Windows package, extending log collection to Windows systems that cannot run 64-bit software.
Many organizations still operate legacy Windows infrastructure — older servers, industrial control systems, and specialized workstations — that are limited to 32-bit environments. The 32-bit package includes all modules compatible with these older Windows versions and retains full support for encrypted Remote Management and NXLog Transport input and output communication. This lets you manage and monitor legacy systems with NXLog Platform alongside the rest of your infrastructure, so you do not need a separate logging solution for older hardware.
Log collection is an important control for organizations that cannot replace these systems. For those with compliance obligations under NIS2, HIPAA, or PCI DSS, better monitoring also helps meet audit requirements when upgrading is not an option.

Use macOS Keychain for certificate storage on NXLog Agent
NXLog Agent 6.14 integrates with the macOS Keychain for OS-protected certificate storage, allowing TLS certificates and private keys to be stored and accessed through Apple’s native security infrastructure rather than as files on disk.
Private keys stored in the Keychain are protected by macOS access controls and cannot be read directly by other processes. This aligns with Apple’s security model and helps meet enterprise policies or compliance requirements that mandate OS-level protection for cryptographic material. It also simplifies certificate management: certificates provisioned through your organization’s standard macOS workflows can be referenced directly from the Keychain without needing to export them to the filesystem.
