Products that Endpoint Upgrade Assistant can upgrade

Endpoint Upgrade Assistant can upgrade supported versions of Trellix ENS and legacy products to Trellix ENS 26.x. It also upgrades other supported Trellix products to maintain product compatibility, using a single deployment task.

Earlier versions of Trellix ENS

Upgrade Automation attempts to upgrade Endpoint Security 10.2.x, 10.5.x, or 10.6.x. If it can't, it removes the existing version and installs Trellix ENS 26.x.

Additional considerations:

  • If you select a product update, it is also installed.

  • If Host Intrusion Prevention is installed, you can choose to keep it.

Legacy products

When upgrading these supported legacy products, Upgrade Automation removes the existing product and installs the new product.

This legacy product...

Is upgraded to...

VirusScan Enterprise 8.8 or later

  • Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) Threat Prevention

  • Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) Adaptive Threat Protection (Optional; Requires Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) Threat Prevention)

Host Intrusion Prevention (McAfee Host IPS) 8.0 or later

Firewall (Optional)

SiteAdvisor Enterprise 3.5 or later

Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) Web Control (Optional)

Threat Intelligence Exchange (TIE) for VirusScan Enterprise 1.x or later

Removed

Additional considerations:

  • If you select a product update, it is also installed.

  • If you want to keep your custom settings, you must migrate them before upgrading to Trellix ENS. If you don't do this before running Endpoint Upgrade Assistant, you are prompted to migrate them when preparing endpoints for upgrade.

  • If Host Intrusion Prevention is installed, you can choose to keep it.

Trellix Agent

If Endpoint Upgrade Assistant determines that Trellix Agent version 4.6 or later needs to be upgraded to support Trellix ENS 10.7, it is upgraded to version 5.0.3.222 or later when Trellix ENS is upgraded.

If a compatible version of Trellix Agent is on an endpoint, you can select whether to upgrade it.

Other Trellix products

You can deploy upgrades for these additional Trellix products when you upgrade to Trellix ENS 26.x by selecting the version you want to upgrade to. The selected version of most of these products can be installed during the upgrade if an earlier version isn't already installed.
