Audit Logs
We’ve implemented a new audit logging system specifically for tracking partner and customer admin interactions within the backend. This feature enhances visibility and control over critical administrative activities.
Tracks key actions performed by partner and customer admins, such as configuration changes, policy updates, custom URL edits.
Ensures secure and transparent auditing of admin-level operations, helping to maintain accountability and oversight.
Logs are accessible for review and can be filtered by admin user, event type, action type, or time frame to simplify monitoring.
Provides tamper-evident logs to maintain data integrity and comply with industry standards.
Browser DLP - Print Prevention feature gives admins the ability to block the end user to print any web page physically or as PDF. Print Prevention can be activated for any Custom URL Group in any policy under Web Filters TAB. Action for the Custom URL Group should be selected other than "No Act" or "Block" to enable selection option.
Browser DLP - Screen Watermark Protection feature gives admins the ability to inject a watermark to any web page in a Custom URL Group. Screen Watermark Protection can be activated for any Custom URL Group in any policy under Web Filters TAB. Action for the Custom URL Group should be selected other than "No Act" or "Block" to enable selection option.
Watermark ID of any user can be seen in the details of a user in the Users menu.
Also, IDs can be searched in the Users list, using the Search User search box.

Windows Agent
Windows Agent v2.0.52 Release Notes
The latest Windows Agent v2.0.52 is now generally available, introducing several key improvements for specific environments:
Improvements:
- Resolution of "Sticky DNS" Issues with VPN Solutions:A known issue, often referred to as the "Sticky DNS" problem, can occur when certain VPN solutions override DNS server settings on network adapters and fail to restore the original settings after the VPN tunnel is disconnected. This can leave static DNS settings in place, potentially causing slow DNS lookups. The new agent version now detects this situation earlier and prevents the use of outdated DNS servers, improving overall DNS performance.
- Enhanced Policy Handling with CLASSIC-DNS and Cloud Anycast DNS:When using theCLASSIC-DNSpackage alongsideCloud Anycast DNSas an upstream forwarder, we have enhanced the way DNS policies are applied based on user groups. Even if the local DNS has a cached response from a previous lookup (made by a user under a different DefensX policy), other users will consistently receive DNS responses aligned with their own policy settings, without interference from cached data.
- Optimized Shutdown Behavior with Windows WFP:We've addressed an issue where the DefensX Agent could experience problems upon receiving specific events from the Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) sublayer during service shutdown. The new version ensures smoother shutdowns and improves stability during this process.
