Notifying users when support ends

By default, Enforced Client displays notifications on client computers to remind users that support is ending for their operating system.

When upgrades to product components, such as the scanning engine, are scheduled to end or will end within 30 days.

When updates to detection definition (DAT) files have ended or will end within 30 days. A policy option determines whether support notifications are displayed.

Notifications are not displayed for computers running Windows 95 because support for that operating system has already ended.

To enable or disable notifications:

1On the Groups + Policies page, click Add Policy (or click Edit to modify an existing policy).

2Click the Advanced Settings tab.

3Select or deselect Display support notifications on client computers, then click Save.

This release brings a suite of advanced features, cutting-edge technologies, and characteristics tailored to enhance system performance and resilience against cyber threats.

One of the highlight features of SonicWALL 4.5 is its Integrated Intrusion Prevention System (IPS). This system provides real-time threat detection and response by monitoring network traffic for potential vulnerabilities and malicious activities. With continuously updated signature-based detection, it ensures that organizations are protected against the latest exploits and attack vectors.

This multi-engine sandboxing technology analyzes suspicious files and URLs in a secure environment, providing organizations with in-depth insights into potential threats before they reach the network.

Furthermore, the solution includes enhancements to Secure Mobile Access, enabling secure remote connections while ensuring that sensitive data remains protected. With features like SSL VPN, SonicWALL 4.5 allows users to securely access private networks from anywhere while maintaining compliance with data protection regulations.

In terms of management, SonicWALL 4.5 introduces an intuitive interface for centralized management, enabling IT administrators to configure and monitor multiple devices effortlessly. The reporting and logging capabilities are enhanced, providing detailed insights into network activity, which is crucial for compliance and forensic analysis.

SonicWALL 4.5 also prioritizes user experience and performance with its optimized hardware, ensuring faster processing speeds and reduced latency. Features like high availability and load balancing further enhance system reliability.

In summary, SonicWALL 4.5 stands out with its integrated IPS, NGFW capabilities, advanced malware protection through Capture ATP, secure mobile access, intuitive management interface, and optimized performance. This comprehensive suite of features positions SonicWALL 4.5 as a formidable player in the realm of network security, making it an appealing choice for organizations seeking robust protection against an ever-evolving threat landscape.
