Product Life Cycle (End of Support and End of Life) Policy for Dell Data Security

概要: Dell Data Security product life cycle stages indicate whether products are Active, End of Sale, End of Maintenance, End of Support, or End of Life (EOL).

この記事は次に適用されます: この記事は次には適用されません: この記事は、特定の製品に関連付けられていません。 すべての製品パージョンがこの記事に記載されているわけではありません。

現象

The Dell Data Security product life cycle explains the end of support policy for products.

Affected Products:

  • All Credant Technologies Products
  • All Dell Data Security (formerly Dell Data Protection) Software
  • All Dell Data Security (formerly Dell Data Protection) Hardware
  • All Dell Data Security (formerly Dell Data Protection) Utilities

原因

Dell Data Security spans many products and was originally named Credant Mobile Guardian. In 2012, Dell acquired Credant and rebranded the product to Dell Data Protection. In 2017, the product was rebranded to Dell Data Security. As products pass their end of potential and are no longer useful to customers, or have become antiquated, these products are sunset towards their End of Life.

解決方法

Dell Data Security’s Lifecycle process flows through several stages:

  • Active
    • The outlined product is under active development.
  • End of Sale
    • Designated that sales of a product are restricted or have publicly ended, though new releases are being made for customers with existing contracts.
  • End of Maintenance
    • The product is no longer sold, and development of a product is no longer being maintained.
  • End of Support
    • The product is no longer sold, development has been ended, and is no longer getting updates from support, and all effort from support is best effort.
  • End of Life
    • All contracts for this product have elapsed, product is no longer sold, development has ended, product updates are no longer posted, and this product is unsupported.

Once all these stages have been reached, the product or feature is considered End of Life. Often, for products that have reached End of Life, a newer product version may be required to resolve an issue if the current version exhibiting issues is End of Life.

Unreleased versions are listed below to announce upcoming End of Life for specific product versions, operating systems, or SQL Server versions (for use with the Windows server-based Dell Security Management Server [formerly Dell Data Protection | Enterprise Edition]).

New Commercial customers may continue to purchase Dell Encryption Personal and Dell Encryption products until September 2, 2022.

Current Commercial Dell Encryption Personal and Dell Encryption Enterprise customers have until January 31, 2023, to:

  • Purchase new 1-year licenses
  • Renew existing licenses for 1 year
  • Purchase additional licenses to co-term with existing installed multi-year licenses

For more information, reference Dell Encryption End of Sale Important Information.

This section holds a summary of the various product statuses. The section entitled Detailed Status outlines the versions and dates that each product entered its phase, and any commentary for that status.

This section separates products into their specific status, outlining the date that the product entered this status, and the date that the next status will be reached (if known). Select the appropriate status for more information.

Dell Data Guardian 2.x 2.8.1381.4 July 15, 2019 October 31, 2019 December 2019 Dell Data Guardian can encrypt data no matter where it goes. This is done by watching where files are being moved through a storage filter driver. If the file is being moved to a location that causes the data to go to a managed cloud service provider such as OneDrive, Google Drive, or Box, then the file is encrypted based on the current user who is logged in. Keys can then be shared to external users for collaboration on files while they remain encrypted.
Data Guardian also enables the ability to protect office documents in a key-per-file format with the ability to add a hidden image file that relays information back about the file’s location, even when Data Guardian is not installed on the device attempting to open a protected document.
