Active Defense 1.1.7

This update includes the following:

  • Known Limitation: Viewing volume maps from hardware drive arrays is not currently supported.
  • New Feature: Added in the ability to set an adjustable delay on bootup before the DDNA Agent begins scans on nodes. This new setting can be adjusted on the General Settings page.
  • New Feature: Added a column to the Modules table on the System Details page that shows whether or not the module is whitelisted.
  • New Feature: Added in support for Hard Links, Symbolic Links, and Junction Points to the Volume Map browser.
  • Enhanced the performance of Timelines.
  • Enhanced the performance of the Volume Map Browser
  • Bug Fix: A bug causing Scan result processing to take significantly longer to complete than it should has been fixed.
  • Bug Fix: Deleting Scan Policies with a significant number of results will no longer result in a server timeout error.
  • Bug Fix: You can now reset an agent's license without having to specify user credentials for that agent's host.
  • Bug Fix: Fixed a HASP key licensing conflict problem that would arise when an end node has both a DDNA Agent installed and a Responder HASP key plugged in.
  • Bug Fix: Exported Whitelists now include module path information.
  • Bug Fix: Fixed an issue with an icon not showing on the Update Credentials popup.
  • Bug Fix: Fixed a bug in the processing of Physmem.BinaryData Scan Policy results that was causing the data to not be displayed properly.
  • Bug Fix: Some messages displayed in the logs have been reworded and other messages have been added to more accurately describe errors encountered during Agent removal.
  • Bug Fix: An issue that was causing LiveOs.Process scans to fail matching process names properly has been fixed.
  • Bug Fix: Issues with the Remote File Browser showing an incomplete list of files has been fixed.
  • Bug Fix: The adding of Whitelist entries has been reworked to address issues with updating module information after a whitelist entry is added.
  • Bug Fix: Issues with the domain name getting appended way too many times to the beginning of a host's username during authentication has been resolved.
  • Bug Fix: MSMQ account password now set to never expire.
  • Bug Fix: Fixed some issues with requesting the same file multiple times from the same system. Also added the host name to the beginning of all requested files so that it is clearer which host the file came from.
  • Bug Fix: Agent status is now correctly updated when an agent has not checked-in for over an hour.
  • Bug Fix: An issue that could potentially cause a node to not get enrolled due to the agent failing to calculate a valid Machine ID has been resolved.
  • Known Issue: Exporting large Timelines (30,000+ events) may cause "out of memory" exceptions. If you are experiencing issues while exporting Timelines try requesting a new Timeline with a smaller timespan.
  • Known Issue: If the ActiveDefense Storage Location is set to a folder on the desktop issues may arise when attempting to apply the license. To avoid these issues either choose to install to the default location or if you are using a user-defined location do not specify a location on the Desktop.
  • Known Issue: There is a corner case where an Agent may not get removed from the database on the first uninstall attempt. This issue will arise if you install the Agent manually, then uninstall it manually, then attempt to remove the Agent from the ActiveDefense UI. The Agent will move over into an error state of E310 or E320 and will not be removed from the database until you attempt to remove the Agent from the AD UI again. To avoid this issue, make sure credentials are specified for all Agents that are installed manually. Alternatively, if the Agent moves into status E310 or E320 after attempting to remove it simply select those machines and issue another removal job and ActiveDefense should remove the Agent on the second try.

  • Strings and symbol searches with local scope now maintain the local package restriction for multiple searches.
