Beta Program - Symantec Embedded Security: Critical System Protection v6.5 

Sep 09, 2015 10:22 AM

We are building a new version of Symantec Embedded Security Critical System Protection with significant enhancements centered around usability. It's designed to run on embedded/single-use systems such as industrial control systems, automotive systems, point of sale, ATM's, medical devices and beyond.

We’d love you to take part in beta program beginning September 14, 2015. By participating you will be able to experience the benefits first hand.

Key features in Symantec Embedded Security: Critical System Protection

Auto-Sandboxing custom applications: Allows you to initiate application profiling for specific applications residing on the agent and then create sandboxes for those applications in an automated manner. Existing applications on the agent or applications with specific program paths/directories can be selected for profiling and subsequent auto-sandboxing. The application is expected to run to its fullest extent while it is being profiled. Application profile logs are interpreted and application’s legitimate access to resources is automatically transformed into set of rules, which defines application’s normal/expected behaviour, in other words, application’s sandbox. You can view the generated rules for the newly created sandbox and proceed with the custom sandbox creation. The application’s sandbox is then associated to the application automatically, in the policy. 

Create custom baseline policies and view changes from custom baselines: Allows you to mark any workspace policy as “Custom Baseline” policy. New workspace policies can be added based on the newly created custom baseline policies. You can view any changes made in the workspace policies as compared to the custom baseline policies. You can create multiple custom baseline policies on top of same Symantec supplied baseline policies.

Deployment of multiple packages through FTPS: Allows you deploy multiple (Prevention policies, Detection policies, Configuration parameters) packages on the standalone agents, in one go from the FTPS server.

To participate in the Symantec Embedded Security: Critical System Protection beta program, you must meet the following requirement.

  • Be prepared to submit feature requests and defect information via SymBeta forums prior to the key deadlines.
  • Test some key use cases for the product as documented in the Beta test guide.
  • Located in countries not under international embargo / restricted access legislation (Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan and Syria, Belarus, Cuba, and Russia)

To sign up, please apply for the Symantec Embedded Security: Critical System Protection beta program via SymBeta and select New User to begin your application.

We look forward to and really appreciate your feedback.

I've been a Consultant on SCSP/SDCS:SA since 2006, this is an exciting new product expansion to help secure SCADA, Industrial Control Systems, QNX for the Automotive Industry is espesially exciting. I was on the SymBeta team and this is a transition process for existing customers who have rolled out SCSP 5.2.9.x and DCS 6.x with Embedded Systems. If your a current customer using either the SCSP 5.2.9.x or DCS 6.x and need help migrating to this product please feel free to post or contact me directly for help with migrating to this version of CSP. You'll know when you get the FileConnect Serial and see Critical System Protection for Embedded Systems is your only choice to download.

Also I would like to note that the current DCS Server Advanced may end up being renamed soon back to the well known name of this product Critical System Protection. In DCS 6.6 we're looking forward to the decoupling from only supporting NSX to include ESX which will enable customers not currently running NSX to take advantage of the VMware Partnership which played a critical role in expanding Agent-Less Malware Protection Solution for the rapidly growing VM On-Premise to Cloud migrations, and Hybrid Cloud/On-Premise customer intitatives.

Unified Console Experience: Looking to the future you'll see the Console based on Java to an HTML5 Web Based Interface, removing some confusion around the HIDS/HIPS configurations and very fast responses when you're navigating the new interface, and very intuative...

I look forward to any comments, replies with questions, etc...

Warm Regards,
