LiveSecurity Service Broadcasts

The WatchGuard® Rapid Response Team regularly sends messages and software information directly to your computer desktop by e-mail. We divide the messages into categories to help you to identify and make use of incoming information immediately.

Information Alert

Information Alerts give you a fast view of the newest information and threats to Internet security. The WatchGuard Rapid Response Team frequently recommends that you make a security policy change to protect against the new threat. When necessary, the Information Alert includes instructions on the procedure.

Threat Response

If a new security threat makes it necessary, the WatchGuard Rapid Response Team transmits a software update for your Firebox®. The Threat Response includes information about the security threat and instructions on how to download a software update and install it on your Firebox and management station.

Software Update

When necessary, WatchGuard updates the WatchGuard System Manager software. Product upgrades can include new features and patches. When we release a software update, you get an e-mail with instructions on how to download and install your upgrade.

Editorial

Each week, top network security personnel come together with the WatchGuard Rapid Response Team to write about network security. This continuous supply of information can help you to keep your network safe and secure.

Foundations

The WatchGuard Rapid Response Team also writes information specially for security administrators, employees, and other personnel that are new to this technology.
