Pulse Workspace
- The Pulse Workspace Workstation file synchronisation procedure (filesync.exe) now browses for folder shares correctly when executed from an installation script. This affects new installations only. Current users will not notice any change.
- Following a security review of our software the following changes have been made to the Pulse Workspace network folder share…
- The user group permitted to access the share has been changed from Everyone to Users. This means a user must be logged on and authenticated either locally or by the domain to access the share.
- Permissions on the folder share have been tightened from Full Control to Read only. The effect of this change should be minimal as ultimate security is provided by the NTFS permissions on the server’s filesystem which remain unchanged and set to the operating system default. It may reduce the potential for attack should the NTFS permissions be compromised.
Note that the change to folder permissions affects new installations only. Existing installations maintain their current permissions created either at installation or by their System Administrator.
