Avast Business Hub 8.29

We’re happy to announce that Avast Business Hub 8.29 has been released! (September 16, 2021).

This release brings a new Avast branding, with an updated look and feel.


New Feature(s) & Enhancements
• Updated Avast logo and overall look and feel.
• Ability to ignore specific patches directly from Patches page - if you don’t want to install specific patches on all or selected devices, you can easily mark them as Ignored (in “Action” - “More actions” - “Ignore”). Ignored patches will automatically move to the “Resolved patches” tab. You can revert ignored patches anytime from “Resolved patches” using the “Revert” action.
• Sites / Customers managed via a multi-company console won’t receive a local default policy when a global policy is assigned during the site / customer creation.
• Exclusions for Remote Access Shield now accept IP ranges.
• Improved filtering of resolved Alerts based on Event Category.
• Users with the “Viewer” role can now use the Remote Control service to initiate a remote session.
• In the Patch detail tab, devices can be filtered by status.

Resolved issues
• Fixed an issue with the Alert settings, where it was unavailable after opening immediately after the Alerts page was opened.
• Fixed an issue with filtering migrated or reinstalled devices on the Devices page.
• Improved stability of remote deployment executed from the new Network Discovery tab, in cases of deploying multiple devices at once
