  • 1.  SEPM and client version clarification

    Posted Aug 22, 2014 09:46 AM

    Just a clarification. If I have SEPM 12.1.3 and need to upgrade clients to 12.1.4, SEPM needs to be upgraded to 12.1.4 as well, right?

    Thanks

    Ideally and best practice-wise, YES

    12.1 can manage all versions including newer clients so it's not a hard requirement. But yes I would get both on the same version if possible.

    Hi,

    It's recommended to upgrade both SEPM & SEP clients to the latest version to patch recently detected vulnerabilities.

    Is Symantec Endpoint Protection affected by the Heartbleed OpenSSL vulnerability (CVE-2014-0160)

    SEP 12.1 RU4MP1b is the latest version of SEP.
