BigFix AntiPest Definitions update

[system]

(imported topic written by SystemAdmin)

Hello BigFix

I know that BigFix use a customized verion of CA Antispyware with its own version " 2.0.0.20 "which is not exist on CA website , and manage itself the Definitions Update which is released Randomly daily or twise a week

and i know that there is a fixlet which manage this updates

but my Question is

• Does Bigfix Antipest use the Same update definition file & version as CA antispyware product ?

• Can i download this Update from the CA Ftp site ( same as the Antivirus update which can be downloaded from http://ftpav.ca.com/pub/inoculan/scaneng/fv_nt86.exe) Instead of using Bigfix Website " http://software.bigfix.com/download/AntiPest/defs/defs*****.bfd " ?

I just want to have two different places to get my definitions updates for fault-tolerance

Thanks

Hi aih_eng,

BigFix AntiPest uses the same definition files as the current CA Anti-Spyware product. However, unlike AntiVirus, there is no public access website to download updates for manual application.
