These updates are available to all Symantec customers who are using Symantec Endpoint Security (SES) Enterprise, Symantec Endpoint Security Complete, or Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP). Symantec Security Cloud customers can also benefit from the single Symantec Endpoint Protection client that enables web filtering and content analysis for web applications.  

New features for 14.3 RU8 for Linux include: 

• EDR network exclusions per process. SEP Linux 14.3 RU8 filters EDR network events per process. Known good applications can be filtered, reducing the time it takes to analyze events.

• Multiple LiveUpdate server configurations are now supported.

Additionally, when managed by the Symantec Endpoint Security cloud console, the following features are also available:

• AutoUpgrade support for cloud-managed Symantec Endpoint Protection Linux Agents. From 14.3 RU8, Linux Agents can be automatically upgraded to future versions from the cloud console Default System Policy: Client Upgrade Settings.
