Application control Arghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!

Why is it that Sophos relase application control detection BEFORE they release the SEC console lists so that we, the administrators of sites, cannot release blocked programs without releasing 'all added by sophos ....'.  For example, GoogleEarth just got changed and the release in SEC doesn't apply to the version now being checked. PowerDVD doesn't exist in Media Players section but is now blocked. Infuriating and causing me to spend unnecessary time on support calls from people all round our global operations.

 

There clearly should be a QA procedure in place to prevent this kind of activity. Come on Sophos!

  • Thanks DK,

    Clearly there's a problem. It would be good to understand how to tell if the SEC console is up to date like the endpoints but there isn't anywhere to look to see this clearly. I can see in the warehouse that the VVF XML was sent out on the 4th around 4pm which is used by the endpoints, is the same warehouse file used by SEC or is that a different file because 'Power DVD' for example only occurs in the VVF warehouse file?
