  1. Disable "Updated Patches Available" and "New Dell Updates Available"

    Disable the "Updated Patches Available" and "New Dell Updates Available" report that KSMA sends automatically.

    It should be great to set it as an option (enable\disable, sender\recipient address, etc) in the "Patch and Feature Update Download Settings" or "Dell Update Download Settings".

    Thank you
    Marco

  2. Increase node quarantine details

    Is there a way to increase the quarantine detail for nodes that are in quarantine? It would be helpful to get other items like our Custom inventory fields. Currently, it's limited and without more data, we cant ascertain if this is a computer that should be allowed.

  3. Change "Session Expired: Please log in again." Screen to "Ok" button.

    When I login after my session has expired I am redirected to the login screen where I have to login a second time. Support says this is because the page was cached.

    I would like the "Session Expired" screen to have an "Ok" button that redirects you to the login screen to avoid having to login twice if the page is cached.

  4. Firewall for all traffic, not just httpd

    Even with ssh disabled from the web gui, I get a lot of messages re: sshd login attempts. I'd rather have all traffic outside my subnets dropped except for connection to Kace update servers.

  6. Minimize Patch Notification

    It would be helpful to have the ability to minimize the Progress Message (we use this to show "Deploying Patches") after it first shows up. Sometimes this progress can take hours, and the notification stays above most other windows.

  7. root

    It would be nice to be able to use p7b certificates on Kace SMA appliance so we don't have to make an exception rule on the firewall's decryption to allow traffic. Unless we install the cert on the appliance, traffic to the appliance won't decrypt at the firewall which seems to prevent updates from downloading to the appliance. For security reasons, we'd prefer to implement the decryption cert rather than make an exception rule to allow the traffic. Appreciate if this feature could be considered in future releases.

  8. Disable server-status page

    Currently if you go to the SMA site page /server-status (kbox.domain.com/server-status) it will tell you that access is denied due to a lack of permissions. There should be an option to completely disable this page from visibility. This is most important to customers like us who host the appliance externally. Attackers could scan our domain and see that there is an Apache server active at the address and could plan a more focused attack against it.

    We only host our appliance externally so that workers with endpoints at home and abroad are able to still be managed by the SMA.…

  9. Retrieve Windows defender signature version from server/workstations

    add the ability to retrieve windows defender signature version. The inventory already gathers the version information but not the signature version.
