yep!

Moved away from Barracuda to Keepit this summer. Very impressed and interface is much smoother. Got mine from Phonenix Software.

I've currently removed KB5072033 and monitoring. Currently haven't seen the same errors on the logs

I'm having similar issues with a Server 2025 NPS. Now thinking it might be a recent update? Will let you know if I find anything or indeed if you find a solution, please share. Thanks

I’ve been looking at similar products. Take a look at Iam Compliant. Looks really powerful and cost effective. https://www.iamcompliant.com

Just in case anyone else needs it. "Applicaa Enrolment App Installer Ver. 1.0.0.0.exe" /exenoui /qn APPDIR="D:\Test"

I have... It's been escalated and waiting for another update. Just thought I would ask the community in case someone else had solved it.

I've been asked to take a look at the Applicaa Enrolment App in preparation for summer. It's not something that we've previously used. Just wondering if anyone has managed to get this to install silently and wouldn't mind share the commands used? It's currently only available as an .exe only and doesn't support the normal commands. I've managed to extract the MSI but gets stuck as it's designed to only be called by the bootstrapper .exe . Many thanks

We have a managed virtual firewall set on independent hardware. We operate complete VLAN segmentation so it's not going anywhere as it governs traffic across the entire network and not just at the edge. When you look at the requirements from the DFE around offsite filtering (which is achievable with Fortigate) but mainly with DSL's having access to look at logs, monitoring etc I feel it doesn't meet them. Lightspeed will solve all of this for me especially as we are a BYOD school. To me their solution gives me the best support to protect boarders etc whilst allowing easy access and monitoring to DSL's. If we move to a 1:1 rollout they also allow parental access to device logs which could fit really into a boarding environment. From a technical perspective I love the Fortigate just feel they are trying to play catchup within Education. Having spoken to them directly they are also relying on a member of staff working in their own time for a set of reports to import into Fortianalyzer. This revelation was a little scary to discover!

We have filters for both web and application. These are both scheduled in the same policy which is matched against a group of users. Although we are moving to Lightspeed in the summer so will have to see what I can then achieve. Either way under the boarding standards it’s important to give them more access.

I spoke ESS at Bett and was fortunate to speak to the product manager for SIMS Next Gen. She made it quite clear that it will be 6 years before they are in a position to replace SIMS.Net into the cloud. That's rather a long journey! During this time they will also remove things like InTouch in favour of SchoolComms resulting in not only a long journey but potentially a bumpy one! Currently looking at the market and likely to move to Bromcom given our own complexities our options are limited.

Depends on what you are using for filtering. Our Fortigate allows us to control things at the application layer which allows us to be more flexible. Under the boarding standards there is a clause that defines the internet for "social purposes" so we relax our filtering slightly in the evening for boarders only. We then allow certain social network sites subject to age and currently allow Whatsapp (including calls) etc.

Interested to hear people's views on what works for them. Moving more and more devices to the cloud removes the ability to perform certain tasks the "traditional" way. Combined with tighter controls around cyber security, including patching of not only the OS but third-party software. Cost is always a factor and has always prevented anything like this in the past however, the requirement for tools like this is ever increasing! I've been researching several so welcome any positives and negatives.

Paxton changed this a while back. They no longer include it in the download and you have to be a registered partner to get it. Salamandersoft should be able to access it as they registered for it when I raised it with them.
