In the effort to continuously improve the accuracy of our Application classifications, the following characteristic and risk changes are planned for late April 2021. The rollout was postponed from the originally announced date.
- Users who have configured existing characteristics and/or risk-based application filter policies should note the upcoming changes and plan accordingly
- Reporting will also be affected - application traffic is reported according to the risk and characteristics in effect at the time the traffic was logged
