Product history
In July 2015, JumpCloud added support for Google Apps to its cloud-based directory service.
In May 2020, JumpCloud added availability of its use through Apple’s Mobile Device Management (MDM), enabling managing of Apple macOS devices via the MDM protocol and support for deployment through Apple’s Device Enrollment Plan (DEP).
JumpCloud introduced conditional access policies to its directory platform in December 2020, enabling IT admins to adopt Zero Trust security.
In August 2021, JumpCloud introduced a new iOS and Android application to help enterprise IT departments with multi-factor authentication.
A new password manager was introduced in the Q4 2022 product roadmap to streamline access when combined with existing MFA, SSO, and federation capabilities. Remote assist functionality was also added for macOS and Windows devices to help with remote troubleshooting.
The Q4 2023 product roadmap highlighted new features such as federated device identity management and advanced policies for Android device management. New mobile management functionality for iOS and Android was released, which also contributed to cost reduction for IT.
In January and February 2024, enhancements to the JumpCloud Password Manager desktop app and its browser extension were released. Support for JumpCloud Go™, a phishing-resistant authentication method, was expanded to include Chromium-based browsers like Microsoft Edge and Brave.
In March and April 2024, Federated Authentication was introduced to allow administrators to onboard new users with existing Identity Providers (IdPs) such as Okta and Entra ID. JumpCloud Go™ also gained support for GNOME-based Linux devices.

On April 27, 2026, JumpCloud announced the launch of "Agentic IAM," an extension to its core platform designed to catalog and govern autonomous AI agents alongside traditional human and non-human identities. The update introduced an automated lifecycle framework comprising AI discovery tools for local resources, real-time device posture verification for executing models, and an OpenID Connect-authenticated AI Gateway supporting Agent-to-Agent (A2A) and API communication. This architecture requires executing agents to run on managed, verified hardware to establish a secure data path. Additionally, the release integrated risk-based "human-in-the-loop" checkpoints to mandate explicit human authorization before high-impact autonomous actions are executed.
