Hi There!
I have some questions about Endpoint 12.1.5
1) We have had issues in the past with the Hard Disks on the Server filling up with Gigabytes and Gigabytes of data related to Endpoint Security. Do the latest builds now fix that issue? From what version onward would that solution be?
2) We have had a LOT of issues with Symantec detecting the connection from the Domain Controllers on our sites as a threat and kicking the endpoint off the DC for 10 minutes at a time. I believe this is related to Intrusion Protection. Is this now fixed, or is the correct solution to still disable this via the policy, or is there a way to make a package that doesn't contain this component? If so, how?
3) In the past we have not been able to, from the SEPM console, remove older versions from the PC's and reinstall the latest version. Is this now resolved?
4) I am not clear about the future of the Endpoint Protection product as it relates to 5-50 user companies who want to remain on premise? Is it that Endpoint SBE 2013 is essentially 12.1.5RU rebranded? I need some plain english explanation because all I can find is marketing claptrap! Even Symantec seem unclear!
5) Is there a reliable way to detect Ransomware at the gateway to the network? We found Symantec (and to be fair other providers) to be pretty poor in their detection rates of this threat type.
6) I am trying to find some self paced video training to use to become familiar with best practices, deployment and administration again as it's been quite a while. It seems like since the split, we can't find the training stuff on partnernet any longer.
