    When a user opens the SEP client, each section has a Definitions date.  It is obvious what this means for Antivirus & Proactive Threat Protection, but what does it mean for Network Threat Detection?  - Thanks - Paul

     Nopes the definition for Proactive threat Protection is the Truscan Whitelist. and IPS is not part of PTP
    only PTP scan and App and Dev Control are part of PTP

    so why don't they just call it Truscan on the client? and why don't they call the network trheat protection Firewall on the client as in the SEPM console it's called firewall

     Well I guess its because the Firewall is considered as a heavier product and people should know there is a firewall on their computer.
