We recommend that all our customers install the latest DriveLock version.
Support lifecycle:
Since version 2023.1, the support lifecycle for new DriveLock product versions is as follows: once a new product version is released, we announce the End-Of-Life (EOL) of the previous version.
*1 DriveLock will continue to provide full support for this version for 12 months from the date of the EOL announcement. This includes critical maintenance updates, code fixes for bugs and critical issues.
After the expiration of full support (12 months), DriveLock will no longer release new updates for this version.
*2 However, DriveLock product support is available for a further 6 months to answer telephone, e-mail and self-service inquiries.
This applies to all on-premise versions from version 2023.1.
Upgrades:
Customers who have previous product versions and a valid maintenance contract can upgrade the environment to the latest product version.
End of life of features:
-
With version 2025.1, policy signing certificates are no longer checked.
-
Version 2025.1 is the last version that supports the power management available in the DriveLock Management Console (DMC).
TLS 1.2: Please make sure that all operating systems running DriveLock support TLS 1.2. as of now.
