End of Support for Non US-DoC Compliant Versions of Harmony Endpoint

[BarYassure]

Dear Harmony Endpoint Security Partners and Customers,

New U.S. Department of Commerce Regulations

As of June 14th 2024 and no later than by September 29th, 2024, US vendors are required to adhere to the US Department of Commerce regulations described in document 2024-13532 issued on June 14th, 2024. 
You can find more details about this decision here: https://www.federalregister.gov/d/2024-13532/

Impact on Harmony Endpoint Customers

While recent Harmony Endpoint versions already comply with the US DoC regulations, some customers are still using versions which will be non-compliant as of September 29th 2024.

To ensure continued security and compliance, these customers must upgrade their products before the specified deadline.

Additional details can be found here:https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk182464

Both the compliant and non-compliant versions of Harmony Endpoint offer the same features and security level.
Transitioning to a compliant version is seamless and will not impact your operations.

Deadline for Upgrade: September 29th 2024

Check Point will end support for non-compliant Harmony Endpoint versions on September 29th, 2024, affecting both US and non-US customers.

Hello,

Since we started using Harmony Endpoint, updates have never required a reboot.

We have a little over 400 servers with endpoint and we do the updates with the policy below:

We have many critical servers that cannot be restarted at the same time. More generally, we would like to do the reboot manually and not agent-driven. Is this possible?

Kind regards,

[MikeB]

Is there any way to apply this change without automatic restart of the client??  The impact of this uncontrolled automatic restart would be very large for our customers.
