Digital Guardian

Analytics & Reporting Cloud

Version: 5.8.0

April, 2026

New Features & Enhancements

This release enhances both Component Lists and Watchlists by allowing users to update entries directly from their respective tables, without navigating to additional pages. Users can edit Description and Status fields in Component Lists, and Value, Description, and Status fields in Watchlists. These improvements streamline list management, enable faster updates, and reduce manual effort.
This release introduces "Bulk Update All" and "Delete All" actions in the Table component, allowing the user to apply changes to all alarms that match the current filters without manually selecting rows. These actions apply to Alarms only and do not apply to Events or Incidents. The “All” action includes all matching records, even those not currently visible in the table (beyond the 1,000 displayed rows), improving efficiency for highvolume and repetitive workflows.

NOTE: The system limits “All” actions to 250,000 records and disables them if this limit is exceeded. Additionally, "Delete All" requires confirmation when no filters are applied.
In this release, the Classification Type options have been updated with two new categories: Classification Tag and Persistent Label. The existing types have been renamed to Classification Policy, Classification Rule, and Data Attribute. Additionally, the Event Details panel now presents these categories in a structured, hierarchical format, providing clearer insight into how ARC categorizes data.

NOTE: This update introduces a collapsible tree that improves navigation and provides a cleaner interface by organizing details into sections that are collapsed by default.
This release adds audit logging for Sample Match Data Access to improve visibility into Sample Match usage. The system creates an audit entry each time a user views Sample Match data, capturing who accessed it and when. ARC retrieves detailed match information only when users select “See All Matches.” Audit records include the record ID and record type (for example, Event or Alarm) and store only access metadata, not Sample Match values. This enhancement improves accountability and traceability while supporting regulatory and security requirements.

Fixes

Resolved an issue that prevented the Sync Service from establishing an LDAPS connection to on-premises Active Directory over port 636.
Resolved an issue where scheduled reports failed due to an invalid query attribute.
Resolved an issue where the Removable egress channel in the Insights workspace did not display alarm counts to the corresponding Alarm Summary data, even when removable media alarms were triggering as expected.
Resolved an issue where certain complex circular link configurations in workspaces caused link binding to fail, causing filters to be applied inconsistently.

Agent for Windows

Version: 11.1.0

April, 2026

New Features

A new configuration paramete, aciMaxSecondsPerArchiveContainer is introduced that controls the maximum time spent inspecting archive files (supported for ZIP files only; other archive formats such as TAR and RAR are not supported) during real-time ACI operations such as copy, extract, and archive. The system stops inspection when the total time limit is reached.

The supported range is 1 to 300 seconds, with a default value of 30 seconds. Setting the value to 0 (custom configuration only) disables the timeout and reverts to legacy behavior. This setting applies to agent classification (data in motion). The system enforces an approximate timeout and allows any file already under inspection to complete, which may result in slightly exceeding the configured limit.

The aciSampleMatchArchiveDetails configuration is enabled by default starting in version 11.1.0 and enhances sample match visibility for ZIP files by including file-level details during archive operations using the native Windows archiving (Explorer) process.

NOTE: This feature is supported only for the Windows native archiving explorer process.

NOTE: This behavior may result in some files within a ZIP container not being content-inspected. As a result, classified data may egress without detection or notification.

NOTE: The aciSampleMatchArchiveDetails configuration does not apply to Archive events (destination).
This release adds support for Proxy Auto-Configuration (PAC) files to enable dynamic proxy selection based on the target URL or host. Previously, only static proxy configuration was supported, requiring all outbound traffic to use a single fixed proxy. With this enhancement, the system can evaluate a PAC file to determine the appropriate proxy for each request.

This feature is currently supported via custom configuration only, using the following parameters:
- proxyEnabled - Enables proxy usage
- proxyPACUrl - Specifies the PAC file URL (defaults to http:// if no scheme is provided).
- proxyPACRefreshSec - Defines the PAC file refresh interval (default: 300 seconds)
- proxyPACFailRefreshSec - Defines the retry interval after a PAC fetch failure (default: 60 seconds)
- proxyPACVariables - Specifies optional variables for PAC token substitution
Static proxy settings remain supported and are used as a fallback when PAC configuration is unavailable or PAC resolution fails. When both PAC and static proxy are configured, PAC is used first, with static proxy applied as a fallback. This proxy configuration applies to both CloudComm and MIP communication.
Added a configuration option to reduce duplicate alerts for NTU events. By default, the feature is disabled, so existing behavior remains unchanged unless explicitly enabled. This feature is supported via custom configuration. To enable this feature, add or update the following entry in the config.xml file:

<enableRetryFiltering>1</enableRetryFiltering>

When enabled, the agent filters duplicate records within events and improves retry correlation, reducing duplicate alerts.
In this release, the DGWIP default logical processor setting is updated to use two processors when no explicit value is configured, establishing a fixed out-of-the-box default of 2.
Enhanced the ACI mechanism to process large data in a single pass instead of multiple partial inspections, reducing delays from over 60 seconds to under one second.
DGDIAG now collects detailed information on all running processes and their loaded DLLs, including metadata such as vendor info, last modified date, size and location improving diagnostics and troubleshooting by providing more detailed insights.

Fixes

Resolved an issue where DGAgent reported schema parsing failures for DCS/Titus schema files.
Resolved an issue where excessive GetHash log entries were generated, increasing log volume. These messages now appear only when DEBUG tracing is enabled.
Resolved an issue where the DGAdmin process could crash when processing certain URL-encoded characters in MIP label values (such as “%20S”). This crash resulted in application delays during file classification.
Resolved an issue where prompts were not displayed when using Secure Desktop, causing user actions to be blocked and preventing interaction with prompt controls.
Resolved an issue where file capture failed during print operations in Microsoft Office applications when the source file was on a remote drive.
Resolved an issue where the Outlook plugin did not correctly handle non-ASCII characters in file paths in a case-insensitive manner.
Resolved an issue where the DG Agent did not send version-mismatch OpAlerts at startup when ACI was enabled. The Agent now sends a single OpAlert at startup if the OpenText SDK version does not match the required version.
Resolved an issue where agents were not upgrading via DGMC due to contention between agent threads communicating with the DGMC server.
Resolved an issue where the DGAgent did not raise an OpAlert when it was unable to process the latest associated Component List.
Resolved an issue that caused single-file uploads to generate duplicate NTU event alerts.

Agent for Linux

Version: 12.2.0

April 2026

New Features

Support for <aciTangibleCharacters> Property
- The DG Agent for Linux now supports the <aciTangibleCharacters> property in release 12.2.0. This property enables the use of the following characters in files: & < > ' ". It can be configured using a custom configuration.
  
  NOTE: To enable aciTangibleCharacters, update config.xml. For example, to enable &, add the following: <aciTangibleCharacters>&</aciTangibleCharacters>
Certification for Additional Kernels

This table lists the additional certified Linux kernels for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and Ubuntu in this release. Refer to the Agent for Linux User's Guide for details about the packages required to support the new kernel versions for the Agent. Refer to Agent_for_Linux_v12.x.x_and_Later_RHEL_Certified_Environments and Agent_for_Linux_v12.x.x_and_Later_Ubuntu_Certified_Environments for the complete lists of supported RHEL and Ubuntu kernels.

Network Server Suite

Version 11.7

April 6, 2026

Enhancements

NSS: When the Ping Monitor performs a DNS lookup prior to executing the ping command, it may not consistently return the primary IP address of the target system. This behavior can affect systems configured with multiple IP addresses. To ensure accurate monitoring, specify the correct device in Device Manager by setting the Host/Address field explicitly to the system’s primary IP address.
NSS: The HELD status of a rule is now written to the Windows Registry whenever the rule is updated, ensuring that the status remains consistent across sessions.
NSS: The Halcyon Trap Receiver service has been updated to use the latest Microsoft OLE DB driver for SQL Server, replacing older components to address security vulnerabilities and deprecated dependencies.

NSS: The application now targets .NET Framework 4.7.2, and all components have been rebuilt to ensure compatibility and improved stability.
NSS: SQL Server connectivity has been migrated to the Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server (MSOLEDBSQL), replacing the deprecated SQL Server Native Client (SNAC). This ensures continued support for modern OLE DB interfaces and TLS protocols.
NSS: You can now configure logging levels in the TrapReceiver.exe.config file. The default level is INFO. Available levels, in order of increasing priority, are: ALL, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR and FATAL. To disable logging completely, set the level to OFF.
NSS: Several components used by Halcyon Trap Receiver service have been updated and replaced to address known security vulnerabilities and deprecated dependencies.
NSS: A new Password Policy tab enables administrators to define comprehensive password rules, including minimum length requirements and the need for uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Additionally, usernames must now be at least five characters long to improve consistency and security.
NSS: This release introduces enhanced security for SQL Server connections used by Halcyon applications. All SQL connections are now encrypted using TLS, improving data security and compliance with best practices.
NSS: Stronger password validation has been implemented to improve overall security.
NSS: When users attempt to change their password, a new Password Policy section is displayed, outlining the rules defined by administrators. These rules may include requirements such as minimum password length, and the inclusion of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters."

NSS: The upgrade process now correctly preserves configuration settings in Instant Alert Server.
NSS: The Network Manager has been updated to drop unauthorized connections without attempting to write back XML trace data. This change prevents unnecessary processing and ensures system stability.
NSS: Resolved an issue in the Enterprise Console where switching from CLOSED to OPEN alerts could cause a blank screen and require re-sign in. Layout handling has been corrected and any existing corrupt layouts are now automatically detected and rebuilt so alerts display correctly.
NSS: An NSS agent encountered an error when attempting to send an Instant Alert message. Instant Alert returned an invalid response due to a missing status attribute in the message response when an Address Book entry no longer exists. This issue has been resolved.
NSS: A defect that prevented the NSS Windows Agent installer from warning users about an existing Halcyon Windows Suite has been fixed. The installer now correctly detects Halcyon and stops the installation to avoid conflicts.

Human Risk Management (prior Terranova Security)

Version: 1.125.2

April 09, 2026

Fixes

Fixed a verbiage issue affecting dashboards.

Version: 1.125.1

April 01, 2026

Fixes

An issue where courses and quizzes created by users with a custom role restricted to managing a subset of users lost their managed filter when additional filters were added. Previously, if a user with this kind of role added another filter value from the Course or Quiz Access Management tab, the system removed the role‑based managed filter and applied only the newly selected filter, resulting in incorrect course access. This issue has been fixed, and managed filters are now always applied and correctly combined with any additional filters, ensuring courses and quizzes are assigned only to the intended audience.
