Tailscale has released version 1.80 of its mesh VPN, addressing common pain points around DNS and SaaS integration in hybrid environments.
Mesh DNS
Multiple DNS subnet routers can now advertise overlapping zones without conflict — Tailscale's new mesh DNS resolver uses consistent hashing to pick an authoritative router per query, with automatic failover. Multi-region and multi-cloud teams no longer need to carefully partition DNS responsibilities.
App Connectors
App Connectors proxy SaaS identity federation (SAML, OIDC) through your Tailscale network, so SaaS apps see your IdP as if it were on a corporate network. Works with Okta, Entra ID, Google Workspace, and any standards-compliant SAML/OIDC IdP.
Enterprise Features
New just-in-time access approvals with Slack integration, session recording for Tailscale SSH, and FedRAMP Moderate authorization announced for US federal customers.
