Peter,

Thanks for the update.  A little late on the release to put into this coming school year's image...but good to know that there is an updated version coming soon.  I have yet to hear back on my other query as to whether they will be releasing a Mac App Store (not iOS but Mac OS) version of the Secure Browser...  It would be SO helpful to push the browser via MDM to Mac laptops/desktops...if you want, Peter, to ask them that also it would be appreciated by those of us in the field.

Cheers, and thanks for all that you do!

Hello all:

 

This is a response to an older message posted by Keith Puffer in late June.  I can’t really apologize for delay on response, I think they had some internal discussions at AIR on this—I got this message passed down to me only today. 
I certainly realize that some of you, including Keith, have probably moved past this, but here is some relevant information anyhow.  

 

Keith asked:

Was wondering if the Secure SBAC Browsers that are currently listed on the AOE portal http://vt.portal.airast.org/secure-browsers/ should be considered okay to install for the 2017-2018 image or not - Mac 10.12.5 OS.  Seems like the Secure Browser versions have been updated on a more frequent basis as of late.  Should I wait or go for it?

 

 

AIR says:

I would wait; the updated SBs are currently scheduled to be released on 8/14/17.  They’ll be placed on the portal and we’ll make an announcement.

 

Thanks..

 

Peter
