  • 1.  Latest SEP 11.x and 64 bit operating system and server support question

    Posted Jul 14, 2009 01:52 PM
    There are so many version of documents about SEP product compatibilities and so many posts on this site. most of them are dated year ago. I would like to have the most up to date information on latest SEP product compatibilities.

    The latest version of SEP is 11 MR4 MP2 (aka 11.0.4202.75) as of today. Does it support applicaiton and device control on x64 XP client, Windows 2003 servers? does Symantec have a latest compatibility list?

    Thanks

    Application and Device Control is not supported on 64 bit OS.
    Proactive Threat Protection Scan --Is not supported on Server OS and 64 bit OS
    Tamper Protection is not supported on 64 bit OS.

    TILL DATE MR4MP2--I don't think if there are any plans even in MR5

    Does Application and Device control work on 32 bit Server OS? such as 32 bit Windows 2003 Standard/enterprise Edition? how about Windows 2000 and Windows 2008?

    Thanks

    Yes Application and Device control is supported on Server operating system 2k/2k3/2k8

    Some reference for PTP and Application and Device Control

    Proactive Threat Protection status shows "OFF" in the client interface
    On Server Operating Systems the Proactive Threat Protection only supports Commercial Application List scanning or "CAL". This is why the status shows as "OFF" in the client interface. This is by design.

    Application and Device Control Policies do not work on 64-bit client computers.
