Hi everyone,
We would like to inform you that we are going to have new release over Comodo ONE on Saturday (10/21/2017) morning. Platform will be on maintenance mode for 4 hours early Saturday. We expect to have no service outage in general. If you observe any brief connectivity issues, please retry later in the day.
Here are the release notes:
IT and Security Manager
New Features
- With the new release macOS X devices are also controllable by Comodo Remote Control. Now you can remote control your macOS X endpoints to troubleshoot anytime anyplace. Just make sure that your macOS X endpoints are updated to latest Comodo Client – Communication agent.
- Now admins can also limit the staffs access to certain companies on device group level! “Access Scope” section under ITSM->Users->Role Management->Role page is improved with device group to enable& disable access to each company and device groups beneath. With this option admin can dedicate a role to see only limited companies& device groups and not the other ones.
- Technical improvements for increasing the ITSM overall stability have been implemented.
- Health level of back-end services, database, queue and cache structures monitored.
- Long running queries investigated and necessary indexes created in database.
- Discovery back-end service re-designed so that the business logic of the service transferred to agent side.
- Auto log collection for service crashes have been implemented to reduce the time spent after any problematic cases.
- We have identified that patch discovery on the endpoint was blocked in some cases due to unexpected halting of the Windows update service for any reason. We made our patch management module capable of enabling Windows update service by constantly monitoring its process. With this improvement, we will make sure that a patch will be discovered as soon as it is published by Microsoft.
- We are happy to announce that 75 script procedures and 19 script monitors are added to ITSM Predefined procedures sections. Also it is worth noting that existing procedures are modified to meet the new standard.*
- We also added a new folder named “Monitors” for custom script procedures that can be used for managing your endpoints. Please see Appendix-2 section at the end of the notes.
- We have reworked the status icons on the device list views. Now we have 3 statuses to show the real status of the device.
- Gray: Offline. Device is not reachable
- Blue: Connected. Device have communication with portal. Commands and messages are sent in a short period of time.
- Green: Online. Device have real time communication with portal, commands are sent to device in seconds and you can remote control the device.
- “Stay signed in” checkbox on Comodo Remote Control” was not working after device reboots, issue is fixed. Now you can check this box and you will not need to enter your credentials in the next run.
- Some of the ITSM Android agents were not communicating with ITSM portal, and on some portals the devices were shown as offline even though the devices were reachable. Both issues are fixed.
- Some visual compatibility issues were detected on Edge browsers, the icons and tables were shown with wrong format, it is fixed.
- With the new release, CCS agent keeps protecting your devices while enhancing its maintenance skills. In case of any CCS crash, logs are automatically collected in order to investigate the cause and to make more robust the protection you are under.
- We have improved the file scanning mechanism with scan priority parameter. When an unknown is executed on the endpoint, Comodo Client - Security will submit the file to Valkyrie with high priority label so that it will be analyzed prior to other files that reside without execution. This will ensure file verdict is completed much sooner, which gives us opportunity to take precautions and to provide a much secure environment for your endpoints.
- We optimized our data centers to manage the change in a more rapid way. Now, Comodo One Portal will be even faster. All functions will work more stable and you will easily use Comodo One Portal in a more reliable manner!

With new forwarding way, you can easily convert to ticket and take action on filtered e-mails that are sent to your support mailboxes! Now, go ahead and enable “fetching e-mail via forwarding” option from the Admin Panel! After that you just need to copy the e-mail address that we created just for you and be sure that your mailbox is forwarding the incoming mails to that e-mail! By this way, your customer will not be confused and you will be managing their request over tickets with full business automation and visibility!
