Supporting Medium DAT

Prev Next

Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) for Linux now supports Medium DAT (for content) that reduces the on-disk footprint of the product.

The advantages of Medium DATs is that it has all the capabilities of AVV DATs and occupies lesser space and memory, in addition to being faster and lighter than AVV DATs. The Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) for Linux package is bundled with a minimal DAT with version 999 that makes the deployment package smaller in size.

Note

On fresh installation, Trellix recommends updating the minimal DAT to the latest version of medium DAT. Since the minimal DAT version is used to reduce the product footprint, you must update the DAT to the latest version immediately after installation to protect your systems from malware threats.
