Release Notes

New Features + Enhancements 🎇

Inbox Defender

• The latest version of Inbox Defender is now available
• All new Upfort Shield users will automatically be onboarded with the new version, while current users have the option to migrate at any time (but keep in mind that support for the old version will sunset by end of year). 
• Note: All current users are strongly advised to upgrade to avoid missing out on the latest features.
• What’s New: Previously, Inbox Defender required that every user install a browser extension on every device from which they would access their email. This new release makes it easy to roll out Inbox Defender for your entire organization in one step. New employees are protected on day one. No individual downloads are required, saving you time and effort.
• Set up your new Inbox Defender directly through your Admin Portal here.

“Gold” Upgrade Option

• For customers that demand extra protection, consider our premium version Inbox Defender Gold. Just $2 per user per month gets you:
  ‍
  • Flagging of malicious content on your mobile devices
  • Deep Scanning of attachments for viruses and malware
  • Analyzing images and scanned documents for threats

New Features + Enhancements 🎇

Cyber University

• Added a new AI course with four new modules. AI is a growing field with many useful applications. It is also increasingly used in cyberattacks to make emails sound more natural, attacks easier to execute, and aid in giving attacks legitimacy: Artificial Intelligence Basics, AI and Phishing, Deepfakes, and Safe Data Handling with AI Tools

‍

Admin Dashboard

• A new data infrastructure update will enhance automated syncing for Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 users.
• Upgraded UI elements to new, more friendly component library.

Browser Extension

Bug Fixes 🕷️

Backend
