Apr 4, 2018 — Enterprise Security Connector 2.1 updates

Upgrade functionality. An ​SIA​ administrator can now upgrade the Security Connector software. When an upgrade is available, an upgrade button is shown with the security connector configuration in ​SIA​. The upgrade process reboots the virtual machine and automatically updates the Security Connector software. This operation may take up to 10 minutes to complete.

Reporting of Affected Machine Name. In addition to reporting the infected machine’s IP address, Security Connector now reports the name of the compromised machine. This information is reported to ​SIA​ if DNS Pointer (PTR) records are configured on the DNS name server that communicates with the security connector. ​SIA​ performs a reverse IP address lookup to identify this information. The Affected Machine Name appears as a filter or dimension on the Security Connector Events tab of the Threat Analysis page (Monitoring > Events).

Support for VMware Tools. VMware tools in VMware ESXi 5.5 or later are now supported to manage and improve performance of the Security Connector virtual machine.
