SigningHub supports configuring proxy settings for all external connectors, services, and other service-based traffic. This feature ensures that all outbound traffic is routed through specified proxy servers, providing enhanced control and security for organizations. With the introduction of these proxy settings, administrators can configure network traffic rules. This ensures that all external communications, including push notifications and SMS notifications, follow the designated proxy paths, improving network monitoring, compliance, and security.


This new functionality is essential for businesses that need to enforce strict network policies and ensure that no external service communication bypasses organizational controls.
