Endpoint Protection

Hello Everybody,

Just want to check if there is any issue with the definitions date or not? as I found todays date is Feb 3 and the Virus definitions are still Feb 2nd in all the management servers and in clients. Please let me know if there is any global issue going on ?

Thanks

it is correct only. The Definition date will be one day old than the present date always... 

You are rite arvind, Normally it will work one day old,, as today is FEB 3rd.. Definitions should be 02-02-10, but the symantec version is showing as 2010-02-01 rev 0.48, Please correct me if  i am wrong

I am also not getting the same in my servers.I think symantec is not released FEB 2 update up to now....

the best way it to book mark this page, I first look into this definitions dates before i check on my servers

http://www.symantec.com/business/security_response/definitions.jsp 

The date is 3 here in india however SEP defs are as follows

Symantec Endpoint Protection Security Updates Learn MoreProactive Threat Protection: 2/2/2010 rev. 20

Network Threat Protection: 1/29/2010 rev. 2

try by running manually The liveupdate. According to symantec site FEB 2 is released.(May be in a delayed time,after the download time we set in the server for download.....)

You are rite Enik, I dont see Definitions 02-02-2010 anywhere.
Only Pro Active Threat protection is 02-02-2010.

Now I can see the Latest Symantec version is 02-02-2010 rev 0.41, I found this in one of my management servers.

The link in my post also referring  02-02-2010 date updates...

I am not sure where you are seeing that info. From the site that Rafeeq and Aravind listed the AntiVirus defs date is 2/1/2010 Here is the info from that site from the time of this post.

My big question is why was this not released at its normal time?

At what time was the 02/02/2010 virus def available today?

Reason I ask is that we scheduled updates on our parents between 10pm and 4am every day and normally the virus defs are available to pull down and update our servers during out of hours to reduce poor performance.

As we cant push a virus def update now during the day due to poor performance when servers update we have to wait a whole day! Plus this virus def package could have important signatures that are required for an outbreak of a infection!

Cheers,
