We’re pleased to announce that Avast Business Cloud Management Console 8.7 has been released! (October 9, 2020)
This release brings support for our newest Remote Access Shield now available in Policies.
Additionally, all our console users can turn the beta console on permanently while keeping access to the old UI at the same time. This option will be enabled region by region in the following days.
Along with those changes, this version brings some additional smaller quality of life improvements.
Console: 8.7
Win Agent: 4.23
Win Antivirus: 20.7
Mac Agent: 6.4
Mac Antivirus: 14.5
New Feature(s) & Enhancements
• Added the possibility to turn the Beta console on permanently so that admins benefiting from the new UI don’t need to redirect there manually each time (available in selected regions first).
• Added support for the Remote Access Shield in Policies (Active protection section). Our latest shield preventing attacks through the remote connections.
• Added the Last AV and Patch scan to the Devices page. This information was also added to the devices page export and the Device report. (available only in multi-tenant or single-tenant beta console)
• Updated the Patch management dashboard widget in the multi-tenant and single-tenant beta console.
• Updated widgets in the single-tenant beta console to open respective reports directly instead of redirecting to the old UI.
• Updated navigation on the Devices page in the multi-tenant and single-tenant beta console where services now expand the whole row after clicking on them.
Resolved issues
• Fixed an issue with installing Remote Control service on devices after the service was activated.
• Fixed an issue where very occasionally a device could disappear from the console while the service is still active on the endpoint side.
• Fixed an issue with an empty user detail page after redirect from a customer console to the multi-tenant console.
• Fixed an issue with the Remote Access Shield being enabled by default instead of disabled.
