If you have already seen my earlier posts, you will know all about the R82 Early Availability Program available here.
Keep reading to discover some of the planned new features on offer in R82:
Management Server
The default minimum TLS version was changed from TLS1.0 to TLS1.2 in the following Check Point communication types:
- SIC communication between a Management Server and all managed servers and gateways.
- SSL communication to the TCP port 18265 on a Management Server (the ICA Management Tool).
- SSL communication to the TCP port 18194 on a Security Gateway configured for Local Threat Emulation.
SmartConsole
- Upgraded the SmartConsole.NET framework from 4.5 to 4.8.
Please note all of these product features are in their early stages and at the discretion of Check Point could be removed from the final release.
