Improvements 🛠️


Fixing 500 Error on Boardroom Report When Logo is Not Available
No more bugs hindering your experience. We have fixed a problematic 500 error that previously occurred on boardroom reports when a logo was not available at the MSP level.

Cleaning Up LDAP Component
We did some spring cleaning, removing obsolete and redundant features like the LDAP integration. This resulted in a tidier, less cluttered, and more functional system overall.

Updating Wording for PAB
We understand that clarity is critical. So, we've updated our wording across the platform, including on the PAB settings, to ensure terms and phrases are easier to understand.

Blank State Issues
A visual issue was fixed on some of the lists' blank states like: training assignments, phish alerts, campaigns, users, company groups, and others.

Excluding Bot Events
We've ensured phishing Bot events are no longer counted on the events overview from the users/managers' profile.

Better User Experience when Cloning Campaigns
We have resolved an UX issue that prevented admins to save cloned a short campaign. 
Previously admins had to open the smart training part and skip training assignments to continue.

Our team has been on a mission to constantly improve and provide you with the best product possible. We're excited about these updates and believe they'll make your experience with our system smoother and more enjoyable! Thank you for your support and stay tuned for more improvements!

New Features 🚀

These are the main new features added on this new version:

SID (Symbol Inbox Delivery)


Get excited! We've added a new functionality on the Company Settings page for enabling the SID (Symbol Inbox Delivery) on Microsoft 365. This new functionality allows customers using the M365 users synchronization to deliver phishing simulation emails faster and directly to users' inboxes.

Additionally We've added a tracker for user clicks and interactions. So now we can gain more insights about user engagement and make the app better for you! It's all about understanding and enhancing your experience. 

API Training Endpoints

The Symbol API now has a new endpoint to list training assignments, making it easier for customers to track and manage their training statuses.

/msp/companies/{company_id}/training/list

This new endpoint will return a list of training assignments for a given company, so you just need to pass the {company_id} and start using it. It also accepts the following filters:
  • Date: (From - To)
  • Status: (Overdue, Pending, Completed)
  • Users
  • Asset

Managing Policy Notifications

This new version includes some additions and improvements to the Policy PRO feature.

Sending Reminders
From now, admins can navigate to the policy assignments list and send manual reminders to users with Pending assignments. This functionality can be performed individually or in bulk.

We've added the ability to manage policy notifications/reminders at the users and company level. So from the app/lms the following Policy notifications can be turned off/on:
  • Policy Reminders (At the user and company level)
  • Policy Assignments (At the user and company level)

Enhancements 🛠

  • We've optimized multiple views of the app like: Training Assignments, Campaigns List and Events by reducing the load time and filter queries so you'll notice an improvement when performing actions on any of those views.
  • Boardroom reports received a little tune-up - adjusting variance value on the template summary and updating the wording.
  • Undertook the task of removing LDAP Integration - thus reducing unnecessary clutter in the code.

Bug Fixes🐞

The assets parameter allows you to search for users who have been assigned specific assets to them by passing a comma-separated list of asset IDs (UUID). For example:
/msp/companies/e8fbd929bc69ed621053-8631ee4d881222fbc09d/users/?training_status=OVERDUE&assets=834c9ac8-ceef-5fbb-a8a1-30a5f44238f0

New Features 🎉


Policy Storage (Google Drive)

In order to integrate Google Drive, admins need to navigate to the option "Storage" placed under "Policies" from the left Sidebar menu. Then they just need to click on the "Connect" button to select the account they want to integrate and choose if they want to send past and/or future policy documents to the storage.

Right now the app allows integrations with OneDrive and Google Drive but admins can integrate just one account at a time and they are able to disconnect their policy storages anytime.

  • Updated email formats and workflows for Domain Threat Alert notifications.

TLDR;

Exciting updates are coming your way! We are excited to roll out the latest version of our application. This release brings quality-of-life improvements, bug fixes, and some cool features for MSP Partners and Single Companies!.

New Features 🎉


Company Groups 

The company groups feature allows MSP administrators to organize multiple companies based on their specific requirements effectively. This feature goes beyond treating all companies as one uniform entity, allowing for customization and tailored approaches to security awareness training.
 
When creating phishing campaigns or assigning training at the MSP level, you can now select specific groups of companies as the target audience. This means that you can customize the content and approach of the campaign/training to suit the characteristics and needs of each group.

Cyber Threat Data Sources

When using the Cyber Threat Surveillance feature, as default, the results are extracted from all data sources, however, now admins can decide from which sources they want to get results.

To define a custom list of data sources, navigate to the "Data Sources" tab from the cyber threat surveillance view and click on the "Manage Sources" button to choose which sources you want to use to get cyber threat results.

Managing Cyber Threat Data sources can be adjusted from the API as well, see our API Reference for further information.

Bugfixes 🛠

July 4, 2023 v3.23.0

TLDR;

We are thrilled to announce the release of our latest update, version 3.23.0, which introduces exciting new features for our admins. This release focuses on enhancing the document management capabilities of our platform, specifically allowing admins to upload PDF policy documents and enabling digital signatures for users. Read on to learn more about the new functionalities and bug fixes:

New Features 🎉


PDF Policy Document Upload 

Apart from creating policy documents using the editor, admins can now upload existing PDF policy documents directly from Symbol. This feature streamlines the process of managing policy documents by allowing admins to upload their policies in PDF formats.

We have also introduced a robust digital signature solution, empowering users to sign their uploaded PDF policy documents electronically. Digital signatures offer enhanced security and efficiency compared to traditional handwritten signatures.

From the training portal, users can sign documents using their mouse, touchpad, or touchscreen device, providing a seamless signing experience across different devices. All signed documents are securely stored in the app and/or OneDrive and can be accessed anytime for reference or auditing purposes.


Bug Fixes 🛠

  • Error fixed when users tried to log in to the app.
  • Error fixed on the OneDrive Policy Storage feature after implementing the policy upload document functionality.

June 8, 2023 v3.21.1

TLDR;

We're thrilled to announce that our v3.2.1 contains great improvements for the Symbol Security API and Training Reminders feature. Also it includes the new functionality of managing Email Blocks from the app, as well as some bug fixes.

New Features 🎉


Manage Blocked Emails

When running campaigns and including phishing simulation emails as part of the content, sometimes users don't receive the emails because it bounces for variety of reasons like:

  • Fake email address: The email doesn't exist.
  • Incorrect email address: There’s no spell check in email address fields — typos happen!
  • Sender Blocked: the recipient may have purposely blocked the sender email address.
  • Not Receiving Emails: The email is configured to NOT receive emails.
With the new functionality added on this release, MSP Admins are now able to see the list of emails that have been blocked by any of the reasons mentioned above and they will have the option to Remove those users from the blocked list. 

In order to access to this list admins can navigate to the MSP portal and click on the option Blocked Emails placed under the Events tab from the sidebar.

Changes ✨


Training Reminder Updates


There's a new action when sending training reminders to users that will allow admins to remind users about all their pending assignments, no matter their statuses.

By navigating to the training assignments list both the MSP portal or a specific company and clicking on the "Remind" dropdown, admins will now see a new action called "All Pending Assignments". By choosing this action, users with any overdue or pending assignment will get a reminder email about all their pending completions.


API Updates


This release includes the fix of some errors received from the Symbol API when calling specific endpoints like:
  • GET /event_subscriptions/ (and using "company_id={id}" as a param).  
  • GET /msp/companies/{company_id}/users (and using any filter like: "training_status").  
  • POST /msp/companies/{company_id}/training/assign (and choosing past due dates).
We also added a new endpoint to the Symbol API that allows admins to refresh access tokens easily without needing to pass it again. They just need to run this endpoint:

  • POST /auth/refresh/
For more details check our API Documentation.


Bug Fixes  🛠

  • Issue fixed when accessing to Partners billing page.
  • Issue fixed when the app was not recovering points to users once events were automatically marked as false positives.

TLDR;

This release includes important additions and improvements to the app such as Auto-Approve for M365 users/groups, Policy Storage, API additions and more.

New Features🎉


Adding Ability to Manage Features for Companies (MSP) 

MSP Admins will now be able to Activate/Deactivate features for their child companies by navigating to the company details page and clicking on the new tab called "Features".

This new "Features" view will display a list of all features that the MSP partner is subscribed. MSP owners will be able to activate the following features for each of their companies:

  • Cyber Threat Surveillance
  • Domain/Email Threat Alerting Service
  •  Policy PRO
  • Opt-In Emails
  • Leaderboard (CyberChamps)

Assigning Training via API.

From now admins are able to assign training courses from the API. They just need to know the details like assets IDs and users IDs. 

In order to get the list of assets IDs, they could run this endpoint:
  • GET /msp/companies/{company_id}/training/assets
And for getting the list of users IDs, they can run the existing endpoint:
  • GET /msp/companies/{company_id}/users/
So, once they have those two pieces of data, they can make use of the following endpoint to assign the courses:
  • POST /msp/companies/{company_id}/training/assign
Get more details about these new additions to the API in our API documentation.


Policy Storage (OneDrive)

This new addition to the Policy PRO allows customers subscribed to this feature to integrate their storage apps with Symbol Security to automatically save the policy documents signed by users.

For now the app only allows integrations with OneDrive, but the next month we will be adding Google Drive to the list of available apps.

In order to integrate OneDrive, admins need to navigate to the option "Storage" placed under "Policies" from the left Sidebar menu. Then they just need to click on the "Connect" button to select the account they want to integrate and choose if they want to send past and/or future policy documents to the storage.

Admins can integrate just one account at a time and they are able to disconnect their policy storages anytime.


Changes✨

Since the last release we have worked on improvements to the Symbol API, so we included the following new endpoints:

API Event Subscriptions for Specific Companies

Before this release admins were able to use the event_subscriptions endpoint for all companies as default and the app was sending the information across all companies to a single place. But now admins using the API will be able to call the event_subscriptions endpoint to manage events subscriptions at the company level. 

Here is the list of new endpoints added:
  • GET /msp/companies/{company_id}/event_subscriptions/
  • POST /msp/companies/{company_id}/event_subscriptions/
  • PUT /msp/companies/{company_id}/event_subscriptions/event_subscription_id/
  • DELETE /msp/companies/{company_id}/event_subscriptions/event_subscription_id/
  • POST /msp/companies/{company_id}/event_subscriptions/event_subscription_id/test/

M365 Auto Approve Users

Before this release admins were concerned because the app was auto-approving every new users added on the Azure tenant, and sometimes those new users found were ‘service accounts’ that often get created but are not actual people that need training.

This time we have changed the approach of the Auto-Approve feature by allowing admins to choose specific groups within Azure instead of the entire population as default.

Admins can select the groups they want to auto-approve by navigating to the Pending Users view, selecting the option to show the list as "Groups" and clicking on the Auto-Approve "Switch" input next to each group.

Learn more about this change by reading Auto Approve M365 Users.


Moving from PubSub to Google CloudTask.

Before this release our background tasks were performed by Google PubSub but after discovering that most of the PubSub task were presenting issues when scheduling many tasks simultaneously, we decided to change the tool to be Google CloudTask.  This movement outside of PubSub is aiming for a better maintainability and uptime of our systems.

These are some of the tasks that we moved from PubSub to CloudTask during this release:

  • Training Assignments (Users)
  • Training assignments (Companies)
  • Company Boardroom report.

Reporting Admin Permissions Changes

Admins with the role "Reporting" had access only to a few views/features of the Symbol app, so on this release we reviewed the permissions of this role and decided to give more access to this role as we're adding more features and functionalities that they can use for reporting.

These are the views that Reporting admins will have access now:

Bulk Actions for False Positives

This functionality was designed to streamline the identification and resolution of false positive events in the app. 

With this feature, both Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and individual companies gain the ability to swiftly mark multiple false positive events for analysis and rectification, not only from within the MSP portal but also directly from the individual company's interface. By harnessing the power of bulk selection and categorization, admins can significantly reduce the time and effort traditionally required to manage false positives, enabling them to focus on genuine security concerns and ensuring a more precise threat detection ecosystem.
