January 2025: Delivered a security-focused documentation update for DataMiner Agents in SkylineCommunications/dataminer-docs. Updated HTTPS certificate guidance to explicitly state that wildcard certificates are not supported for connections to dataminer.services and that fully qualified domain names (FQDN) must be used. This guidance helps prevent misconfigurations, strengthens the security posture for agent connectivity, and aligns with best practices for certificate management. The change is tracked in commit 63a488b08420196370e00a2991ae984b337cae17 (Update Setting_up_HTTPS_on_a_DMA.md).
