Tech Docs: Get Started with Traps 5.0 and the New Traps Management Servic

We recently announced Traps 5.0 cloud-delivered advanced endpoint protection and there is already quite the buzz!

The Traps 5.0 and Traps management service releases include the following key features:

• Cloud-delivered service—The Traps management service streamlines the deployment of your endpoint security infrastructure, thus eliminating the need to build, manage, and maintain management servers.
• Integration with the Logging Service—Centralizes Traps log collection for event management, threat hunting, and incident response.
• Streamlined user interface—Easy-to-use dashboards to help surface critical information, events, and workflows.
• Traps OS support extended to Linux servers—Enables customers to protect critical data center and public cloud workloads.
• Proactive scanning—On-demand or automated scanning to identify dormant malware before it attempts to run.

If you are ready to get started, look no further than the following Traps documentation resources:

• New consolidated Traps landing page for both Traps management service and Traps Endpoint Security Manager.
• Compatibility Matrix—Lists the operating systems, virtual desktops, and virtual applications supported with Traps 5.0.
