FSBG update version 1.0.930 has been released. FSBG is a component of Linux Security 64. This release includes the following changes:

• Improved on-access scanning behavior under high system load. Previously, bursts of rapid file access could overwhelm the scanning subsystem and lead to file access failures. The updated behavior applies controlled backpressure—intentionally slowing certain filesystem operations when overload is detected—to prevent scanning saturation and maintain reliable file access.
• Reduced the rate at which available-memory telemetry is reported to the backend. The previous reporting cadence generated unnecessary traffic with limited operational benefit.
• The scanning service now runs under a non-privileged user account and incorporates additional hardening and sandboxing measures to further improve security.
• On-access scanning now skips the special tracefs filesystem, which has never been compatible with scanning.
• Update log entries now consistently use UTC timestamps.

An update to the WithSecure Elements Mobile Protection app for Android (26.2.0023541) has been completed 25 February 2026. It will be released as a phased rollout over the next seven days.

Dear community,

To make it easier for our Japanese MDR customers to work in their native language, we are introducing AI-powered on-demand translation for communication in elevated BCDs in Elements.

Starting from 1 February 2026, customers with an active MDR service and the Elements user interface set to Japanese will be able to exchange messages with analysts in elevated BCDs in Japanese, with translations provided on demand by an approved AI (LLM) service.

What is changing?

• In the BCD details view in Elements, users will see new options to translate comments on demand:
  • from English to Japanese, and
  • from Japanese to English.
• Japanese-speaking users can write and read BCD comments in their native language, while still being able to request an English version when needed.
• Translations are not automatic in the background – they are triggered explicitly by the user for each comment via dedicated translation buttons.

What does this mean for you?

• If you are an MDR customer using Elements in Japanese, communication in elevated BCDs becomes clearer, more natural, and easier to follow in your own language.
• You keep full control over when translations are requested, allowing you to focus on the comments that matter most.
• The way you work with elevated BCDs in Elements stays familiar – this enhancement adds a convenient translation capability on top of your existing experience, without introducing new complexity into your daily workflow.

We believe this improvement will significantly enhance the day-to-day experience of our Japanese MDR customers and pave the way for further localization and usability enhancements in the future.

An update to the WithSecure Elements Mobile Protection app for iOS (26.1.12041) has been finalized 21.01.2026. The update will be delivered as a phased rollout over the next seven days.

Bug fixes:

• Improvements to Apple CarPlay compatibility with Network Gateway.
• Improvements to web content filtering and exception handling.
• Improvements to log file management.
• Improvements to security event reporting.

Important: Dropped support for the following iOS versions:

• iOS 15
• iOS 16

Exchange Application Permissions Update

The Collaboration Protection Exchange application has been updated with a new set of permissions in preparation for upcoming support for Microsoft Graph API. As a result, tenants already configured in the service may require re‑authorization.

When updated permissions are needed for one or more tenants, the Collaboration protection portal will display a banner prompting administrators to refresh the Exchange application permissions. 

Please follow the on‑screen flow on Cloud services page to accept the new permissions, or refer to the Elements Collaboration Protection User Guide for detailed instructions on service authorization.

New Linux Security 64 and Elements Agent installers have been released (2026-01-14)

The new product installers released are as follows:

• Linux Security 64 Policy Manager installation package version 5.0.15, compatible with Policy Manager Server version 16.00 and above.
• WithSecure Elements Agent for Servers.

The updates fix several installation issues and remove compatibility with no longer supported Policy Manager versions.

If you have already successfully installed the product, there is no need to download or install these packages. The product installer is only needed for the initial setup process and does not need to be kept up to date afterwards.
