Description

Version 6.0.28 of the BES Client is now available!

The latest version of the BES Client provides several enhancements and fixes including a critical security fix that was a result of a formal security audit and code review. Due to the nature of the security changes, BigFix recommends upgrading whenever possible. This Fixlet message will upgrade all BES Clients on the targeted computers.

BES 6.0.28 components are fully compatible with earlier BES 6.0.x components, so the BES Server, Relays, Consoles, and Clients can be upgraded in any order. Please contact BigFix Technical Support (enterprisesupport@bigfix.com) if you have any questions regarding this upgrade.

Note: BigFix recommends that you run this upgrade targeted to "All Computers" rather than to "Specific Computers" so that all old BES Clients will get upgraded.

Note: This upgrade may take several minutes to run because the BES Client service will be restarted as part of the upgrade process and the BES Clients will not report their action results right away.
