Version 2.1 provides new features, existing feature enhancements, and fixes.

New features

This section describes the following new features that we are releasing with version 2.1:

1 - Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) integration

For further information, see Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) integration.

2 - Remote public Wi-Fi device connectivity blocking policies

Remote device permission policies can now be configured for public Wi-Fi connectivity. These policies allow you to block access to public Wi-Fi networks for specific devices or groups of devices. Policies can be applied to Windows and macOS devices.

For further information, see Wi-Fi Connection.

Note

This feature is specific to endpoint devices, and therefore will only function after updating the Coro Agent on your device (Windows-2.1 or macOS-2.0).

3 - Remote password and session locking policies

Remote password and session locking policies can now be configured for Windows and macOS devices. These policies allow you to govern end user password rules and screen lock-out following multiple failed login attempts. These security features help protect sessions on users' devices.

For further information, see Remote Password and Session Locking.

Note

This feature is specific to endpoint devices, and therefore will only function after updating the Coro Agent on your device (Windows-2.1 or macOS-2.0).

4 - Scheduled sensitive data scans

Remotely scheduled hard drive scans can now be configured for Windows and macOS devices. These schedules enable you to scan storage drives on endpoint devices at a specified time and frequency, for example, every Friday at 3 a.m.

For further information, see Sensitive data scans.

Additional updates

This section describes the following additional updates that we are releasing with version 2.1:

1 - macOS agent 2.0

macOS agent 2.0 releases the week of 23 July 2023, and includes the following:

1.1 - Sensitive data scan support for macOS devices

Coro now supports sensitive data hard drive scans for macOS devices. The functionality is identical to that of Windows sensitive data hard drive scans.

The remote scan feature works by conducting a thorough scan of the specified drives and detecting any sensitive files that are present.

To remotely scan a device, navigate to the Devices panel and use the left-hand pane to view the device list. Choose either all devices (select the View > link), devices that have critical issues (select the red section of the chart), or devices that have no issues (select the green section of the chart):

Devices

From the list of devices shown, select an active device (not marked Offline) and choose Remote scan for sensitive data from the Actions menu:

Scan for sensitive data from the Actions menu

For each drive that is scanned, a ticket is created that contains a list of the sensitive files that have been detected. This information can be used by administrators or security personnel to review and address the issue by remotely encrypting the drive.

Coro uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology from Tesseract to scan image files for sensitive data. For instructions on installing Tesseract, see Installing Tesseract on macOS.

Note

This feature also includes Scheduled sensitive data scan policies.
