ESET Endpoint Antivirus upgrades to Endpoint Security automatically after upgrading to Sequoia?

[Bas 0]

Why is it that Endpoint security automatically installs after upgrading to Sequoia? I do not want this version because it's only causing issues with our mac devices. 

Please release a working Endpoint Antivirus for Sequoia..

There is just one product ESET Endpoint Security v8. If your license doesn't entitle you to install the firewall, it won't be installed or you can disable it via a policy:

ESET antivirus was updated to ESET Security because you had enabled automatic product update. If you do not update program from GUI then product is updated to newer version during macOS restart. Update of macOS will do restart so product is updated. If you want to not update it you could disable automatic updates before doing OS restart. Product was informed you about it by several ways: notification, status in main GUI, info message in Update section of main GUI.

 

Anyway, update to newer version is good step because you received latest product version that usually fixes bugs of its predecessors. If you do not need some product functionality you could rerun onboarding wizard which allows you to disable some product components.

 

There won't be another version of antivirus. Both product lines: antivirus and security were merged to one ESET Endpoint Security. This new multi product has scalable functionality so if you activate it by antivirus license you will get only antivirus functionalities from the product, e.g. firewall won't be installed. But this is valid only for home version, business version has activated firewall for all versions for now.
