April 29, 2020 Release

Enhancements:

New:

Use the API to add an Amazon Web Services (AWS) connector and synchronize EC2 Instances and WorkSpaces from AWS to Deep Security:

Calls to the legacy /rest/cloudaccounts/aws endpoint now include a Deprecated:true header. This does not immediately impact any functionality.vAs of June 1, 2020, calls to /rest/awsconnectors/aws that attempt to add an AWS cloud account using a cross account role with a customer-provided external ID will fail as an invalid request. To resolve this issue, update your automation scripts to use the new /api/awsconnectors endpoint. For more information, see https://success.trendmicro.com/solution/00024197.

New in the Deep Security 12 Feature Release API

The following changes have been made since the release of the Deep Security 12.0 API. Also see What’s New in the Deep Security Help Center for information about general product changes.

New features

Google Cloud Platform integration

Google Cloud Platform (GCP) has been integrated with Deep Security. You can now view new GCP instances that come online or are removed, and which instances have protection. If you are using multiple clouds on-premise and in your data center, Deep Security can provide visibility for all of your environments.

Use the /api/gcpconnectors endpoint to automate your GCP-releated tasks. For more information, see the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Connector guide.

Enhancements

The response time has been greatly reduced when calling /api/computers?expand=none
The response to /api/administrators operations now includes the lastPasswordChange field
You can now search on the hostGUID field when searching computers
The AzureVirtualMachineSummary property of the Computers API now includes the Azure Subscription ID. See the sample for a 200 response for the Describe a Computer operation in the API Reference.
Improved the error message when locked-out API keys are used
Added an error message to /api/computers for attempts to delete a cloud-connected computer
Improved the error message that is returned when you use an invalid computer group ID as an argument for the operations of /api/computers and /api/computergroups

New and updated content

In the API Reference, the descriptions for /api operations that are performed on single settings have been updated
Added the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Connector guide
Added the API Cookbook to the Guides section. Cookbooks step you through a basic task using either Bash (cURL) or PowerShell.
The Search for Resources guide provides a new example that searches for null values
Added the SDK Version Compatibility guide that explains which versions of the SDK and Deep Security are compatible.
Added information about how to determine when the last recommendation scan ran on a computer. See “Find when recommendation scans last ran” in the Assign Rules with Recommendation Scans guide

- “Retrieve the value of a policy setting or default policy setting” and “Configure a single policy or default policy setting” in the Create and Configure a Policy guide
- “Configure a single computer setting” in the Configure Computers to Override Policies guide
