Symantec Endpoint Protection Update: Download !!install!!

For managed clients (most enterprise environments), you should never manually download definitions to individual workstations. Instead, you update the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager (SEPM) server, which then pushes the updates to clients. For unmanaged clients or air-gapped networks, the Intelligent Updater is your solution.

Before updating your clients, it is a best practice to update the SEPM first. The manager acts as the brain of your deployment. When you download a new version of the SEPM, you follow an "in-place upgrade" process. Always back up your database and disaster recovery keys before starting this process. Once the manager is updated, it can then distribute the newer client packages to the rest of your organization. Best Practices for Update Management symantec endpoint protection update download
