Pomerium is making changes to our [Hosted Authenticate service](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/capabilities/hosted-authenticate-service), which will affect any existing Pomerium instances and users currently relying on the service.

This is a preliminary notice before the change is expected to go live, currently scheduled for June 12th next Wednesday.

## What’s changing?

Pomerium is streamlining and unifying our [Hosted Authenticate service](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/capabilities/hosted-authenticate-service) for the upcoming launch of Pomerium Zero. This change enables existing users to use Pomerium Zero without needing to keep track of two separate accounts.

## How will this affect me?

- End users with username/password combinations will need to re-register their account by clicking the “Sign up” button in the new login page (as shown below)
- Pomerium administrators may need to adjust policies

SSO (Github, Google) registered users do not need to re-register and can proceed as before.

## What is Pomerium Zero?

Pomerium is currently beta testing Pomerium Zero, a managed version of Pomerium that brings together the best of both on-premise and hosted solutions! We wanted to offer easier management with a web GUI, intuitive API, and tools for administering at scale while retaining the fast speed and data privacy you’ve come to associate with Pomerium.

## I have questions, concerns, or need help

We’re happy to answer any questions or help you with your Pomerium deployments! Please make a thread detailing your issue and we’ll respond to it as soon as possible!
