What's new in the

CylancePROTECT Desktop

agent for

macOS

Administrators can now initiate a background threat detection scan on demand from the management console. The command can be sent from the Device Details screen for an individual device, or for multiple devices at once from the Devices screen.

The

CylancePROTECT Desktop

agent for

macOS

3.2 now supports devices that are running

macOS

14 (Sonoma). You must use this agent version even though previous versions of the agent might continue to run on the device.

The supported upgrade path is that you must upgrade to agent 3.2.1000 first, before you upgrade to

macOS

14. For example, upgrade the agent to version 3.2.1000 while the device is running

macOS

13, then upgrade to

macOS

14.

agent 3.1 now supports devices that are running

You must upgrade to

CylancePROTECT Desktop

agent 3.1 on devices that are running

13, even though agent version 3.0 might continue to run on these devices after upgrading to

macOS

13.

Administrators can now set a custom interval to run background threat detection scanning from the device policy. The scan interval can be set between 1 and 90 days. The default scan interval is 10 days. Note that increasing the frequency of the scans might impact device performance. You can also start the scan manually from the command line.

The date of the last scan for each device is logged in the management console.
