Release availability

The Engine 6810 will be delivered through a throttled update approach expected during the last week of Jun 2025 for all Enterprise ENS installations that receive update via V3 daily DAT updates, with no further action required.

For non-Windows platforms(Linux and Mac) and OEM customers, the new Engine will be available from the Security Updates page and SDK as an Elective update during the last week of Jun 2025.

The auto-update push to products consuming V2 DATs is expected by the end of Jun 2025, after completion of throttled update.
