Versions:
Jetsocat 2026.1.0 is a lightweight, command-line utility published by Devolutions Inc. that exposes Jet and WebSocket primitives for integration with the Remote Desktop Manager (RDM) Management Control Protocol (MCP). Designed for network administrators, DevOps engineers, and security professionals who automate remote-access workflows, the program acts as a plumbing layer between local scripts and Jet relays, enabling secure, low-latency tunneling of TCP or serial traffic over WebSocket connections without additional GUI overhead. Typical use cases include programmatically opening reverse shells to remote hosts, forwarding debug ports through restrictive firewalls, chaining encrypted Jet channels inside continuous-deployment pipelines, or feeding live sensor data into RDM’s centralized console for real-time monitoring. Because it ships as a single self-contained executable, Jetsocat can be embedded in container images, scheduled tasks, or CI runners on Windows, macOS, or Linux, providing repeatable, headless connectivity that complements RDM’s credential vaulting and session recording features. The 2026.1.0 milestone refines TLS negotiation, adds IPv6 link-local support, and introduces a compact JSON logging mode that simplifies ingestion by log aggregation platforms; an earlier 2025.12 branch remains available for environments that require legacy Jet v1 framing. Both versions share the same zero-cost licensing model and can be invoked through one-line commands or batched in PowerShell/Bash loops for mass deployment. Jetsocat is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are served via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest build and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
