SEC 5.5.1

QC over 7 years ago

Hello all,

seems that SEC 5.5.1 is in the works already (though naturally I can't say when exactly later this year will be).

Hello Dave,

can't say as I'm not Sophos. Back then it looked like it's about to come (personally I'd expected Q3 2017 or so).
Just curious - what is it that you're waiting for? Process exclusions in the AV policy, better integration of EXP, or? SEC releases used to be aligned with SAV version changes and additional functionality, the upcoming 10.8.1 doesn't look like one that brings about an upgrade of SEC though. OTOH I've found the DataBackupRestore article already referring to 5.5.1.

According to our account manager @ Sophos they are aiming to release SEC 5.5.1 on March 12th, the update is focused around adding more functionality/management to exploit from SEC.

Hi,

The last correspondence from our TAM...

"In terms of 5.5.1 we were looking at mid-march. However, it was announced yesterday that this is likely to be delayed for further testing.

As soon as I have any more news or an official general release date. I’ll let you know."

We have a few outstanding support calls which will only be achievable with the new features in 5.5.1 so it's release cannot come quick enough....

To add to this the Monthly newsletter from Sophos has come out today which indicates they are aiming to release it 26th April 2018, we will see if they stick to their word.....

The Documentation page is not yet up to date, the release notes (they are worth checking) can be found in the expected location.

Hello

Our SQL server version is 2012 SP4, 11.0.7462.6

installer says : "SQL Server instance does not support TLS 1.2".

Which is false. Anything more up-to-date than 11.0.6216.27 do support TLS 1.2 See: support.microsoft.com/.../tls-1-2-support-for-microsoft-sql-server

Should I continue to attempt installation of 5.5.1?

Hello Paul Jr,

first of all, do you need TLS 1.2? It's not q requirement for SEC.
11.0.6216.27 is, as far as I can see in the MS article, the minimum for SQL Server 2012 SP3 GDR - SP4 isn't mentioned so I assume it "does" TLS 1.2 and it's the version packaged with the installer. Perhaps CheckDBConnection with the -l switch gives some hint.

If you don't need TLS 1.2 just continue with the installation.
