New features

New tenant-specific settings in Basic setup

Simplified setup is now available in multitenant environments, enabling tailored MDR configurations such as response action suppression and localized PDF reports. Tenant-specific settings are supported for both security products and MDR and apply to all MSP customers as well as My Company. Learn more

Updated process tree

We're introducing support for visualizing multiple detections within a single process tree. This enhancement makes it easier to trace relationships between detections, providing deeper context and improving identification of malicious activity. With this release, the BETA tag has been removed. This change will be visible only for incidents created after ESET PROTECT 6.5. Learn more

Improved MDR reporting reflecting low deployment

Low deployment of ESET MDR and ESET Inspect is now clearly indicated, providing better visibility into protection status and helping to encourage full-stack deployment for stronger security. We've updated monthly reports to include warnings about low deployment rates, and both the email text and report headers now reflect this status. Learn more

Rebootless updates to minimize Windows Server downtime

A new option in the Software Install task allows updating server security products without full system reboot. This enhancement streamlines updates, ensuring protection with minimal disruption. Rebootless updates are supported starting from version 12.1 for ESET Server Security, ESET Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange Server, and ESET Security for Microsoft SharePoint Server. Learn more

New auto-update rollout settings

We've added support to bypass auto-update rollout throttling, allowing test groups to receive the newest versions of ESET security products on the day of release. This setting can be configured in the update policy under the Update Timing option and is supported on ESET security products for Windows, Windows Server (version 12.1 or later), and Mac (version 9.0 and later).
