# Product Update - August 8th, 2022

## New Features & Enhancements

- **First Upgraded Users for Client Upgrade:** For the Automatic Silent Upgrade and User Upgrade policy for Windows and macOS Clients, you can define a group of users that are the first to receive the Client upgrade to the new version. You can monitor these users and review the new Client behavior. [Read more](/v1/docs/recommendations-for-cato-client-upgrades).
- **Enhanced DLP Support for OpenOffice Files:** DLP Data Control Rules (Security > Application Control) now supports OpenOffice files as an out-of-the-box file type. [Read more](/v1/docs/creating-the-data-control-policy).
