General

This document contains the latest information about the F-Secure Client Security for Mac 12.31 release. We recommend that you read the entire document before installing the product.

F-Secure Client Security for Mac is a product that provides the same services as F-Secure Safe Anywhere for Mac. In this release, Mac clients report basic statistics to Policy Manager. Remote configuration via policies is not supported.

Fixed issues

  • Upon installation, in some cases the installer silently rejected the Policy Manager communication settings, resulting in the product installed in the standalone mode.

Installation and system requirements

Installation procedure

It is strongly recommended that you remove all other security products before installation.

Import the product installation JAR package to Policy Manager Console. To create a customized installer configured to run with your specific instance of the Policy Manager Server, use the export tool in F-Secure Policy Manager Console. The export wizard will guide you through the procedure and collect all required information and produce a Multipackage installer script (MPKG) that you should copy and launch on target workstations. Consult the F-Secure Policy Manager Administrator’s Guide for the full step-by-step instructions on how to use the export tool.

Important notes 

  • The information required to connect to Policy Manager Server is encoded into the installer script’s file name, so you must keep the file name unchanged for the product to install properly.
  • Protection Service for Business (PSB) licensing backend is used for keycode validation and distribution of anti-virus updates. PSB backend is the only source for updates for Mac client, downloading updates from Policy Manager Server is not supported. If outbound connectivity is restricted, the related firewall rule needs to be added (access to https://emea.psb.f-secure.com).

Known limitations

    When “Security Cloud” is not available, users may be able to visit any website regardless of the settings.
  • Connection problems with proxy.
    If proxy is changed while the software is running, the computer may need to be restarted for the product to take the new proxy into use.
  • Browsing protection and Banking protection are not enabled by default in Chrome Incognito mode.
    Users can enable the features for Chrome Incognito mode by going to Chrome → Preferences → Extensions and checking ‘Allow in incognito’ for the ‘Browsing Protection by F-Secure’ extension.
  • All banking sites are not yet classified as banks.
    If you were expecting a banking notification but it did not show up, please submit the banking URL through https://analysis.f-secure.com/

Known issues

Antivirus:

  • Computer may temporarily hang while a Time Capsule disk is being unmounted.
    Sometimes real-time scanning might cause the computer to slow down or hang while a Time Capsule disk is being unmounted. Restarting the computer resolves the issue.

Browsing Protection:

  • Safari browser prompts dialog after Safari browser extension is installed.
    Safari browser prompts a dialog (‘Do you want to allow this page to open “Client security for Mac”?’) when the browser is started after the Safari extension is installed, and a dialog is prompted every time the user clicks the Allow button on the block page.
  • Third-party accessibility tools like Better Touch Tool or MagicPrefs prevent installation of the Browsing protection extension for Safari.
    Restarting in safe mode disables MagicPrefs and other accessibility software and allow the extension to be installed. Another workaround is to quit the MagicPrefs app from the system menu bar and then try installing the extension again.
  • Product will warn about missing browser extensions even when Browsing protection is disabled.
    Installing browser extensions stops the warnings from appearing.
