Updated Deep Security Manager to allow the removal of Integrity Monitoring baseline data using a console (dsm_c) command. Removing baseline data does not affect the protection you receive from Integrity Monitoring, but does remove the following:
- The option to View Baseline data from the manager console
- The ability to use Trusted Common Baseline as a source of Auto-Tagging
- The ability to generate an Integrity Monitoring Baseline Report
As baselines have grown larger and workloads have become more dynamic, the ability to support the Integrity Monitoring baseline in the Deep Security Manager console has become increasingly challenging. We are committed to evolving the design of Integrity Monitoring to meet the performance and operational needs of our customers. Through discussions with our customers, it was determined that in its current form, Integrity Monitoring was not always delivering the value to offset the performance and operational overhead required to maintain baseline data. For more details on disabling baseline data, see Database performance issue due to lots of Integrity Monitoring baseline data. DS-60498

Release date: June 28, 2021

Build number: 20.0.447

New Feature

Re-parent agents: Deep Security Manager now supports moving agents to Trend Micro Cloud One Workload Security using the new MoveAgent API command. This command automates the process of re-parenting an activated Deep Security Agent from its current on-premise manager to a Workload Security tenant. If re-parenting is unsuccessful, the agent will re-activate with its on-premise manager, retaining its previous configuration.

Due to feature differences between the Deep Security and Workload Security managers, move tasks may be refused to prevent unexpected behaviors. You should disable the following before moving agents:

FIPS 140-2: Deep Security Manager will refuse move tasks if FIPS 140-2 support is enabled.
Deep Security Virtual Appliance: Computers protected by Deep Security Virtual Appliance (agentless or combined mode) will refuse move tasks.

Notices

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 are no longer supported platforms for Deep Security Manager. For a list of supported Deep Security Manager platforms, see Deep Security Manager requirements.

Deep Security Manager 20 (long-term support release)

Release date: July 30, 2020

Build number: 20.0.60

Action required if you use cross-account roles to add AWS accounts to Deep Security using the API /rest/cloudaccounts/aws

To better align with AWS best practices and improve AWS account security, Trend Micro have made a change to the process of adding a new AWS account into Deep Security using cross-account roles. Previously, when using a cross-account role for authentication, Deep Security required two pieces of information: a role ARN, and an external ID trusted by the role. This has now changed to a new process where Deep Security provides the external ID, and requires that the role provided has included this external ID in its IAM trust policy. This change provides stronger security in shared Deep Security environments, and ensures that strong external IDs are always used. For details on the new process of adding cross-account roles using manager-generated external ID, see Add an AWS account using a cross-account role.

Action Required:

Switch your external ID to a manager-generated one: Update the external ID.

If you are using cross-account roles with the API /rest/cloudaccounts/aws, see Action required if you are using cross-account roles with the API /rest/cloudaccounts/aws.

New features

Updated platform support

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 (64-bit)
Windows Server 2019 (64-bit)
Oracle 18 database support
Oracle 19c database support
PostgreSQL 11 database support
SQL Server 2019 database support

Google Cloud Platform: Google Cloud Platform (GCP) has been integrated with Deep Security. You can now view new GCP instances that come online or are removed, and which instances have protection. If you are using multiple clouds on-premise and in your data center, Deep Security can provide visibility for all of your environments. This feature is available for VMs that have Deep Security Agent 12.0 or later installed. For details, see Add a Google Cloud Platform account.

End of Support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 is no longer a supported platform for Deep Security Manager. Upgrade your operating system.

Improved Security

Continuous Anti-Malware protection for NSX-T environments: Deep Security Manager now sends guest VMs' Anti-Malware real-time configuration to all Deep Security Virtual Appliances that are under the same cluster. The effect is that the appliances can now maintain the protection of guest machines that use the Anti-Malware real-time feature during and after a vMotion migration from one ESXi host to another under the same cluster. This feature only applies to NSX-T environments.

Agent version control: Agent version control gives you and your security operations team control over the specific versions of the Deep Security Agent that can be used by features like deployment scripts and upgrade on activation. This provides increased control over the Deep Security Agent used in your environment. For more information, see Configure agent version control.

Improved management and quality

Differentiate between Red Hat and CentOS platforms: Deep Security Manager can distinguish between a Red Hat and CentOS platforms and operations.

Visibility, Protection, and Management on Google Cloud Platform (GCP):

VMs are organized into projects, which lets you easily see which GCP VMs are protected and which are not.
Assign policies automatically based on the GCP Instance Labels, GCP Network Tags, and other instance attributes while auto-scaling up.
Group related GCP instances in Smart Folders based on the GCP instance labels, GCP network tags, and other instance attributes to simplify the management.

Automate Google and AWS accounts via REST API: As you move to more automated deployments, having APIs to perform common tasks becomes a greater requirement Deep Security provides REST APIs to allow you to automate the adding of both AWS and Google Cloud accounts into Deep Security.

Actionable recommendations for Anti-Malware issues: In order for you to understand what is happening in the Anti-Malware system, many Anti-Malware events have been updated to provide more details on why a cancellation or failure has occurred. These events can occur for manual, quick, or scheduled Anti-Malware scans. The enhanced detail is provided in the events with Deep Security Manager as well as provided through SIEM or AWS SNS.

Search Cloud Instance Metadata: Added the ability to do a simple search or advanced search for Cloud Instance Metadata on the Computers page. This allows you to easily find workloads with specific labels, network tags, and more.

Instance Metadata Service Version 2 (IMDSv2) support: IMDSv2 is supported in this release. For details, see How does Deep Security Agent use the Amazon Instance Metadata Service?

Upgrade on activation: Deep Security Manager now has options (Administration > System Settings > Agents > Automatically upgrade Linux/Windows agents on activation) that enable you to automatically upgrade the Deep Security Agent on Linux and Windows computers to the version specified in Administration > System Settings > Updates > Software > Agent Version Control when the agent is activated or reactivated. For details, refer to Automatically upgrade agents on activation.

Enhanced visibility of scheduled scan tasks and event based tasks: Scheduled scan tasks and event-based tasks have been improved by providing scan visibility as well as specific reasons for each uncompleted Anti-Malware scan and recommended actions to resolve the scan.

Reporting improvements to allow chargeback to cloud accounts: The Security Module Usage Report now includes the Cloud Account ID (AWS Account ID, Azure Subscription ID or GCP Project ID) for protected instances.

Multiple vCenters: You can add multiple vCenters in the Deep Security Manager, and associate them to the same NSX-T Data Center. An overwrite warning message is displayed if you are using NSX Data Center for vSphere (NSX-V), which does not support the use of multiple vCenters, or if the NSX-T Manager has being registered with another Deep Security Manager cluster.

Enhancements

UI improvements:

Added file hash values to Anti-Malware events that are exported to CSV (Events & Reports > Anti-Malware Export > Export to CSV). SEG-61890/SF02510024/DS-53441</p>
Updated the descriptions related to memory on the System Information page so they're more accurate and easier to understand.
Improved the description of Behavior Monitoring events by including the reason the event occurred.
Added a GCP Network Tag column to the Computers tab.
Added GCP information such as Instance ID, Labels, Network tags, and more, to Computer Editor > Overview > General.
Added the Cloud Instance Metadata field to the Computers page.
Added a progress bar to Administration > User Management > Roles > New > Computer Rights > Selected Computers to indicate the status of the computers list that's loading.
If there are a lot of agent events in a single heartbeat, they will be split into multiple "Event Retrieved" events.
Enhanced the Relay management experience by providing possible solutions for the "Empty Relay Group Assigned" alert in the alert's description and removing the relay count for tenants that are using the Primary Tenant Relay Group.
Added "Database Type" and "Database Server" columns to Administration > Tenants.
Added the "Kernel Unsupported" system event to indicate if your computer has been upgraded to an unsupported kernel.
Added a reason ID for the "Manual Malware Scan Cancellation complete" system event. The reason ID is displayed in REST API calls, SNS information and SIEM information.
Added the "TrendMicroDsPacketData" field to Firewall events that are syslog forwarded via the Deep Security Manager.
Added the Validate the signature on the agent installer checkbox on Support > Deployment Scripts. For more information, see Check digital signatures on software packages.
Improved the "License Changed" event description by specifying if the plan ID is for Azure Marketplace billing.
Renamed the Service Token setting to Data Source GUID on Administration > System Settings > Managed Detection and Response.
Added a "Agent GUID" column to the Computers page so you can search computers by the Agent GUID.
Included a search bar under Administration > Updates > Software > Local.
When creating a smart folder, you can now select "Version" as the filter criteria to filter computers based on their Agent version.
Added the ability to hide all empty AWS regions, VPCs, subnets, and directories, reducing clutter and increasing load speed on the Computers page.
Aggregated identical agent events in a single heartbeat under a single event.
Modernized the Policies > Lists > Port Lists page.
When creating a smart folder, you can now select "Task(s)" as the filter criteria, which filters for values displayed in the "Task(s)" column on the Computers page. For example, you could create a smart folder that lists all computers that contain "Scheduled Malware Scan Pending (Offline)" as the task. Additionally, if you are using the Deep Security API to search for computers, you can now search on the value of the tasks/agentTasks and tasks/applianceTasks fields.
Deep Security Manager now prevents you from importing duplicate Trusted Certificates.
Redesigned the Computers > Add Account synchronization scheduling to handle many more connectors per tenant, reduce idle thread time, and sync connectors with invalid credentials less frequently.
By default, the "My User Summary" widget on the Dashboard only displays information about sign-ins that have occurred within the last 24 hours.
You can choose not to send packet data back to the Deep Security Manager by going to Administration > Agents> Data Privacy and selecting No.
Deep Security Manager diagnostic packages have the ability to be encrypted. To encrypt your package and logs, go to Administration > Create Diagnostic Package > Enable AES 256 encryption and enter a password. Encrypted zips cannot be extracted using the default ZIP extraction tool available in Windows, it needs to be extracted by 3rd party tools like 7Zip, WinZip etc.
Redacted potentially sensitive information from the diagnostic packages and logs.

Event-based tasks:

Improved the capability of event-based tasks by adding support for GCP security automation with account name, labels, network tags and more in the task conditions.
Introduced "Cloud Vendor" in the event-based tasks conditions in order to limit a task's scope for a specific public vendor (for example, AWS or GCP).

Commands:

Added the following command:

dsm_c -action changesetting -name com.trendmicro.ds.antimalware:settings.configuration.maxSelfExtractRTScanSizeMB -value 512

When Deep Security Agent could not determine the type of the target file, the scan engine loaded the file to memory to identify if it was a self-extract file. If there were many of these large files, the scan engine consumed lots of memory. Using the command above, the file-size limitation is set to 512MB for loading target files. When the file-size exceeds the set limitation, the scan engine will skip this process and scan the file directly.

To implement this enhancement:

Run the command in Deep Security Manager to change the value in the database.
Send the policy to your target Deep Security Agent to deploy the setting.

Added the ability for the Deep Security Administrator to hide unresolved recommendation scan results from the Intrusion Prevention, Integrity Monitoring and Log Inspection tab in the policy pages. To hide the unresolved recommendation scan results, use the following commands

Intrusion Prevention:

dsm_c -action changesetting -name com.trendmicro.ds.network:settings.configuration.showUnresolvedRecommendationsInfoInPolicyPage -value false

Integrity Monitoring:

dsm_c -action changesetting -name com.trendmicro.ds.integrity:settings.configuration.showUnresolvedRecommendationsInfoInPolicyPage -value false

Log Inspection:

dsm_c -action changesetting -name com.trendmicro.ds.loginspection:settings.configuration.showUnresolvedRecommendationsInfoInPolicyPage -value false

Enhanced scheduled tasks:

Task enabled has been renamed to Enable task on the last screen of the Create Scheduled Task wizard
Synchronize cloud account now indicates it only supports vCloud and Azure connectors
Computer/group selection details now display in list view for Anti-Malware scans and Intrusion Prevention tasks

Virtual Appliance:

Added the ability to auto-activate guest VMs protected by the Deep Security Virtual Appliance in an NSX-T environment.
Added the "VMware NSX Policy Configuration Conflict" system event. This event is generated when Deep Security Manager detects that a NSX-T group is configured with different security policies for Endpoint Protection and Network Introspection (E-W).
Updated Deep Security Manager to allow vCloud accounts to be added even if the virtual machine hardware information is missing.
When you upgrade the Deep Security Virtual Appliance SVM in NSX-T Manager, Deep Security Manager will now detect that a new SVM is now protecting guest VMs, and will auto-activate those VMs after the upgrade.
Upgraded the vCloud Connector in Deep Security Manager supports vCloud 9.7 and vCloud 10.0.
Added the ability to sync Deep Security Manager policies to NSX-T environments.
Improved the experience when deleting vCenter Connectors with NSX-T Manager. Previously, you had to manually remove the NSX-T component as a service profile, endpoint rules and service deployments, or the vCenter deletion would fail.
Deep Security Manager can now connect to NSX-T Data Center using LDAP account credentials. Previously, only local NSX-T account credentials could be used.

Other:

When Anti-Malware actions fail, the results will be displayed in the Syslog result field.

Known issues

If you are using an Oracle database, this upgrade will take longer than usual due to a database schema change. For more information about Deep Security Manager upgrades, see Upgrade Deep Security Manager.

Due to issues discovered during internal testing with SQL 2008, Trend Micro now blocks upgrades to Deep Security feature release when SQL 2008 is the Deep Security Manager database. Microsoft SQL Server 2008 is no longer supported by Microsoft and therefore is no longer being tested and supported for use as a database for the latest releases of Deep Security Manager. For more information from Microsoft, see End of support for SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 R2. For the full list of databases supported for use with Deep Security Manager, see Deep Security Manager requirements system requirements. (DS-36715)
