What's New 2022.3

Agent Policy now supports peer-to-peer downloads allowing devices on a network to share agent, engine and configuration installations between one another. One device can connect directly with another without going through an intermediary server.

Client-server networks perform less effectively when more devices request access. A peer-to-peer network provides more efficient performance when more devices are present. The file transfer load is distributed between the participating devices on the network.

As a client-server network has the potential to fail if the server malfunctions or WAN connection is lost, a peer-to-peer network will remain functional, allowing agent and policy distribution to continue.

Peer-to-peer control includes the following settings:

• Disabled - Files will not be shared with or downloaded from peers
• Client Only - Files will not be shared with peers. Files will be downloaded from peers
• Server Only - Files will be shared with peers. Files will not be downloaded from peers
• Client & Server - Files will be shared with and downloaded from peers

You can now specify that only the deployment representatives do a passive scan and OS detection. You can configure your internal security software to allow just the devices that are assigned as deployment representatives, reducing the risk of scans being blocked.

We have introduced column filters on all supported query table views, to allow additional flexibility when working with results.

Improvements have made to the CSV export functionality, to improve the performance when working with very large result sets.

Enhancement to the stage information panel in the editor view, now shows the supported operating system(s) on a given stage without needing to browse to the library.

• Localization of the Agent Client: The agent client is a multi-function program that safeguards an end-user's computer. It will track the status of the machine and perform actions that are configured by the program administrator. The Agent Client is available in English and has been localized to support the language options available in Ivanti Neurons: Deutsch, Français, Español, Português, Pусский, Italiano, 中文 (Simplified), 中文 (Traditional), 日本語, Nederlands.
• Endpoint Vulnerability Bulk Export to CSV, All Devices: In Endpoint Vulnerability, you have the ability to bulk export all device data in the grid to a single CSV file.

From within the table on the Products tab, you can now click on any product name to view more details about that product and perform a number of actions. Actions you can perform include the ability to perform a one-time publication of the selected version of the product and the ability to start or stop managing the product. This provides more granular version control by allowing you to select the product version(s) you want to publish to Intune that meet your business and technical requirements.

Enhancements have been made to the Product Settings options that appear when you manage a product. The two existing settings have been reworded to make them easier to understand, and two new settings are now available: Initial Publication Group Assignments and New Version Group Assignments.

This new tab shows the Microsoft and third-party products that are in your Intune environment, but that are not currently being managed by Ivanti Neurons Patch for MEM. This tab is especially useful if you are migrating from the on-premise version of Patch for MEM, as it allows you to easily identify and manage the exact same products. Using Ivanti Neurons Patch for MEM to manage all products in the recommended list will give you confidence that your users always have the latest and safest versions of the products.

This new tab provides a way to view the status of all recent activity that has occurred within Ivanti Neurons Patch for MEM. One of the biggest benefits of this tab is that it allow you to zero in on exceptions that may have occurred and quickly troubleshoot any issues. This is extremely important, as it enables you to quickly identify potential problems before they become major issues in your environment.

You can now configure Ivanti Neurons Platform to leverage Okta as an SSO provider for authentication. This also supports auto-provisioning where control of group membership can be offloaded to Okta which is useful when on-boarding a large number of users.

Updates to standardize the date and time format across the Ivanti Neurons Platform.

Customers can synchronize Ivanti Neurons for ITAM (Hosted Only) Contract and Entitlement Data with Ivanti Neurons for Spend Intelligence Contract and Transaction Data. Using this capability means you only need to update this data in one system and can synchronize the data on a continuous basis.

Integration with Microsoft Azure Active Directory allows Ivanti Neurons for Spend Intelligence to collect usage data for SaaS-based applications that have registered with single sign-on. This expands the support of single sign-on providers and allows customers to track more SaaS based applications versus using independent connectors.

The Microsoft 365 Connector is designed to be run with the Microsoft Azure Active Directory connector mentioned above. The addition of the Microsoft 365 Connector provides additional licensing information such as subscription information not provided when only using the Micrsoft Azure Active Directory Integration.
