This article is meant to provide information about how Protect provides security updates for Adobe and Mozilla products incrementally.
| Description |
|---|
Example:
For Adobe Flash, if versions 10 and 11 are still supported (Flash 9 & below are EOL) Protect offers all flash 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 to the latest version of 10 as a security update. Protect only offers the latest Flash 11-14 security patches to older versions of 11-14 that are currently installed. This behavior is in place because not all customers wish to move to the latest version.
In this instance if you currently had Flash 10 installed you would need to use the "Software Distribution" scanning and deployment option within Protect to update directly to the latest version of Flash 14.
This behavior can apply to all Adobe and Mozilla products that are supported for security patching within Protect.
