New Features & Enhancements
Detection and Response View in Cato Management Application: Cato is introducing new Detection & Response screens with enhanced investigation capabilities. You can now see highlighted security stories identified for your account, and analyze them with a range of widgets and research sources. Regularly review these stories to significantly improve your security posture and help stay ahead of emerging security threats.
Threat stories contain a broad range of information that let the user:Display live data about compromised sources and destinations
Track the progress of investigations
Analyze details of relevant traffic
Learn more about threats with third-party utilities
PDF Reports Highlight Security Events: Now you can generate Security Reports that shows an overview of events for different Cato Security services.
Including these services:
Internet and WAN firewall
IPS
Anti-Malware and Next Gen Anti-Malware
IPS Suspicious activity (SAM)
IPS DNS protections
Generate reports for different time ranges and for specific sites and SDP users
Use Custom CA Certificates with TLS Inspection: Cato’s TLS Inspection now supports custom intermediate Certificate Authority (CA) certificates. This lets you use your own CA, and work with the certificates already installed on devices in your organization.
Improved Granularity for RBAC with Resellers: Role Based Access Control (RBAC) for the Cato Management Application now lets resellers assign roles to admins for specific customer accounts.
Cato SDP Client Releases
Windows Client v5.7: We are planning to start the rollout for Windows Client v5.7 during the week of May 1st. Here’s a preview of new features included in this version:
Device Posture for SDP Users in the Office: The Device Posture Profiles and Device Checks are now also applied for SDP users in the office behind a site (connected to the network). This lets you apply the same security level by enforcing the same device requirements whether SDP users are working from home, or in the office.
SDP User Feedback: To help us continually improve our remote access, SDP users can now provide feedback to Cato from within the Client.
Every few months, users are prompted to give a rating and comments
SDP users can also manually provide feedback at any time
Improved Client Resiliency with Rapid Reconnect: The Client infrastructure now includes multiple tunnels to provide redundancy. So, if there’s an issue, there is minimal packet loss and negligible impact to the SDP user experience.
Enhanced Client PoP Selection: We improved the PoP selection process to better consider multiple factors including geography and availability. The Client now more accurately selects the best PoP to connect to.
