# Product Update - March 20th, 2023

## New Features & Enhancements

- **Easy to Manage Granular Always-On Policy:** Over the next few weeks, you can implement the security of [Always-On](/v1/docs/protecting-users-with-always-on-security) with an ordered rulebase, and a granular approach that includes user groups and SDP users. Until now, it was only possible to manage Always-On for individual users.
  - Includes **Platform** specific settings, for example to only require Always-On for Windows devices, but not for mobile devices
  - SDP users that don’t match any rules are allowed to disconnect from the network (no Always-On)
  - The current Always-On settings are migrated to the new policy with no impact for your account. For more information, see this [article](https://support.catonetworks.com/hc/en-us/articles/9927211182493)
- **Cato Management Application Enhancements:**
  - **For MDR Service Customers Only:**
    - **Navigation Menu Enhancement:** The [Detection & Response](/v1/docs/reviewing-detection-response-stories-for-mdr-customers) screen is now located in the **Monitoring** menu (previously it was located under **Managed Services**)
