Can the Webroot Isolate Process Be Automated?

Hi there, We’ve been exploring some of the newer features with Webroot and I am curious if the Isolate function can be triggered automatically by the endpoint agent. The documentation seems to indicate that it is only a manual process, but that seems ineffective. By the time we have someone in the portal clicking the isolate button, it’s probably too late to do much good. Thanks for your help! Matt

Changes Coming to Webroot Business Endpoint for Mac

📢 What’s New? Coming at the end of this month, isolation will now available for your Mac endpoints! With this update, Mac systems will need new permissions. 🖥️ What’s Changing?

Webroot Offline

When Win11 is offline with Webroot fully installed and updated, how much less powerful is it? Webroot is a thin AV client that needs constant internet access when it finds a virus, to scan and be told what to do next. All modern AVs are affected by being offline, and are less powerful, but Webroot is more affected. How much more affected is it? Is it almost worthless when it is offline?

Mobile protection

Just wanted to confirm: Webroot Endpoint Protection only runs on Windows or Mac. There is no business product for mobile devices: phones and tablets? If I want to use Webroot, will I need to purchase separate Webroot Mobile Security home-user licenses for each device?

Could Someone Give me Advice Guidance on Implementing OpenText Cybersecurity Solutions in a Hybrid IT ?

Can we audit device per sites if Web Threat Shield extension for Browser is enabled or disabled?

Hi Webroot Team, Newbie here. Can we audit device per sites if Web Threat Shield extension for Browser is enabled or disabled? Also, if the Web Threat Shield extension is disabled from a device with Webroot client program, does it mean that if the User accessed a malicious site, Webroot would not block it? Thank you.

Webroot is deactivated

I have a Mac which has Webroot installed a while back. Now suddenly it seems not to be activated. When I copied keycode manually to Webroot, nothing happens, it's just coming back to the same screen, informing:subscription information not available. Machine information:- Mac OS Catalina- Webroot 9.1.0.144 I tried to install the latest version, but the installation is not completed, I guess because Catalina is not supported by the newest version. The program is not activated, so cannot upgrade Webroot on this computer to a newer version. Any idea to fix this? Thank you.

Agent versions out of support and AV Engine updates - I'm new to Webroot!

Hi All, I’m a Webroot noob and just wanted to grasp how Webroot manages Agent Version lifecycle and how might that effect AV Definition updates. Apologies if there’s a topic or webpage displaying this info. I’m administering a site with a spread of 9.0.29.26 Agents, up to 9.0.35.12 and the Management Console I’m looking at gives a nice RAG status spectrum of the Agents, with the 9.0.29.26 coloured in Red...assuming that means it’s out of support? Is this just a visual indicator to suggest updating or has that version actually expired and at risk of not receiving the latest AV definitions? Regards

Webroot Endpoint Protection for MAC - Unable to Connect to Service

Hello all, Has anyone been experiencing this issue with the Webroot Endpoint Protection agent for MAC? All our managed MACs in various sites, running macos 11/12/13/14, are experiencing this issue. This has been happening since October 2023. This happens after a reboot where the agent will load correctly and then crash during a scan. Webroot Support has not provided any ETA on a fix. Thanks for any feedback, Michael

Crucial Endpoint Console Feature will be lost

With the deprecation of the endpoint management console, we have lost a critical tool to help support our clients. Please add the client’s (WAN) IP address to the entities listing or to the summary section above or below the Internal IP as a suitable workaround. Using the Universal Reporter is too slow and cumbersome to obtain this information.

OS support in each release

I think I read somewhere before, but I cannot find it out so if anyone can point me to that page, it would be great. Basically we are having mixed Windows 10, Windows 11, Mac High Sierra, Mac Catalina, Mac Sonoma. So, the Webroot Endpoint Protection agents are also in different versions. I want to have the list of each Webroot version which supports for which OS. For example: -Mac release 9.5.11.117 requires at least Big Sur macOS. In addition, I found this page https://www.webroot.com/us/en/legal#sys-reqs but not sure what versions mean here. Is macOS Sonoma a version with different builds? Or Sonoma 14.3 is a version and 14.3.1 is another version? Thank you.

Deprecation of old Endpoint Management Console

Good day, I’m curious if anybody can shed any insight on the deprecation of the old Endpoint Protection Console and what we are to expect in terms of changes as of November 28th? I have reviewed training videos and understand where to perform most functions using the new console and entities. Please understand that we have hundreds of a sites listed in our consoles and I have reviewed the videos. Currently if I wish to go to the console and perform work on a site, I can go to the Sites list and I can search and find the site wether that is ABC company or XYZ, then I can click the little pop out or go to Endpoint Protection and click the “Go to Endpoint Protection Console” and I can access the old console. So what happens when the existing console is deprecated? will this button go away? Will there be a new button that will jump us to the specific site in Entities? There are also some logs areas that I’m suspect will no longer be available. Currently I can see which users accessed a sit

Problem with Key Code change

I'm in the process of migrating end points from our old console to WGSM. I'm having issues with a couple of endpoints not accepting the key code changes. I will input the key code manually in the old console, they will appear briefly in the console for the key code they have been changed to, but they still report the old key code, so they eventually reappear in the old console. I'm also having issues with one endpoint where I'm checking the GUI on the endpoint, sending the command to change the key code, checking in the GUI that the new key code is showing after refreshing the configuration, running a scan, then the key code is reverting back to what it was originally. I'm starting to tear my hair out. Please can anyone help?

Webroot , Windows Defender and Huntress

Hello, We are using Webroot alongside Huntress, and we want to use the features of Managed AV of Huntress as it can trigger an analyse of the Huntress ThreatOps Team. So, my question is simple, can we use Webroot and Microsoft Defender actively (as Windows Defender can stop a malware and trigger Huntress) on the same computer. Actually, i have just found some very old article that says it’s possible : SecureAnywhere You want to know if SecureAnywhere is compatible with other antivirus software (webroot.com) SecureAnywhere You want tips for running SecureAnywhere with another antivirus program (webroot.com) But it’s about 10-year-old articles, so i want to know if, in 2023, it still actual , or not? I have also seen this post : Webroot with Windows Defender in 2021 | Webroot Community but the solution say that Windows Defender should have Active Scanning Disabled so i suppose that will disable the benefit of Microsoft Defender with Huntress. Thanks in advance

Discover Admin Recent Logins?

This should be simple: we run a large multi-site network with a number of admins. I need to see the status of our Admins: Name and email, 2FA status, admin type (all on current console) Most recent login date Any login failure info you can provide I can’t see ANY way to discover which admins haven’t logged in. Not in the old or new console, not in API reporting. :( How to solve it?

Webroot impact on performance Windows 2019 vs 2012 R2

We have used webroot for many years, without any major hickups. We have a farm of servers running web applications based on Microsoft.net, so nothing particularly fancy but some features in the system are a bit I/O intensive. They are hosted on GCP and AWS, so vms basically. Now when we have (finally) done “in place” upgrades from 2012 R2 to 2019, we notice that everything went to a halt, basically losing about half the performance on average. First I thought, 2019 is a bloat, maybe we need to do clean installs instead of in place upgrades. But no, this doesn’t help. Then I saw that Defender was active next to webroot. This was a bit alarming, and after disabling Defender, we notice an improvement. But still, if we also disable Webroot we gain another 30% in performance and it’s only then it is comparable to 2012 R2 performance. I’ve tried adding exclusions and it does help a bit (but only if I untick “detect if malicious”) but is that really the only way to go? Anyone has had similar
