Gadi is "in the know" and would trust him on this. 

That said, it's the current target and the final release date may change.

There is a private EA going on for SandBlast Agent for Mac.

Check with your local account team to potentially join this.

I'm not sure if we are planning a public EA before we release it.

Hi,

Where are we regarding the SBA release for Mac OS?

According to the DS; https://www.checkpoint.com/downloads/product-related/datasheets/ds-sandblast-agent.pdf 

There is support for Mac OS, but I can't find the package for it.

Best Regards

Oskar

We have several customers using SBA for Mac already as part of the EA, but could use more.
