GitLab (GTLB) shares were up about 4.1% in Friday trading after the company said late Thursday it released version 19.0 of its platform to expand secrets management, continuous integration visibility, and supply chain governance.

The software company introduced the public beta of its secrets manager to store credentials and restrict access exclusively to authorized jobs, it added.

The update expands developer flow capabilities across the merge request lifecycle and provides component analytics for shared infrastructure oversight, the company said.

The self-hosted agent platform now incorporates four additional open-source models to assist teams operating in restricted or regulated environments, GitLab added.

The latest release also features dependency scanning and security configuration profiles to help developers track third-party components and enforce safety policies, it said.
