Changes in internet domains for WithSecure\u2122 Elements<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For the first few months, we have\u00a0maintained\u00a0the WithSecure\u2122 Elements system using the elements.f-secure.com<\/em>\u00a0domain, with\u00a0\u00a0redirecting to the portal at elements.f-secure.com.<\/p>\n

Now we are taking the next step towards moving all the services to the withsecure.com domain.<\/p>\n

Please\u00a0read our community article<\/a>\u00a0listing the details.<\/p>\n

Filter \/ search Application Control rules<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It is now possible to filter Application Control rules, for example to just list ones you are interested in. This is especially useful if you have many rules.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Configure alerts per Browsing Protection category<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We have now added the ability to configure alerts per browsing protection category. The Administrator can select which browsing protection category blocks send alerts and which are silently blocked.<\/p>\n

Editable Sample Submission\u00a0<\/strong>URL<\/h3>\n

We have added a choice in the profile editor to edit\u00a0Sample submission URL<\/em>\u00a0for browsing protection.<\/p>\n

This option allows administrators to have an internal sample submission system, which they can use to pre-check samples before they are submitted to WithSecure.<\/p>\n

Elements Endpoint Protection<\/h2>\n

Tamper Protection on Windows\u2013 Enabled by default<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Tamper Protection, a feature in WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection for Windows, protects the most important parts of the product from malicious tampering.<\/p>\n

For example, with Tamper Protection enabled, it\u2019s not possible to stop the background services needed to protect the device. Until now, Tamper Protection has been disabled by default, meaning that the security administrator has needed to enable this functionality to increase the protection against bad actors. We are seeing an increase in attacks that try to uninstall our product or kill our processes before infecting the device.<\/p>\n

Starting from 19th October 2022,<\/strong>\u00a0we changed the default setting of this feature so that it is automatically turned on for all new profiles. This change means that, out of the box, customers have increased protection. Different regions will get the change at different dates.<\/p>\n
