Proofpoint | ObserveIT On-Premises Release Notes version 7.17.2

Version 7.17.2

This document provides information about new features, issues that were discovered and fixed since the previous release, and any limitations of the release. It is important that you read this document before you install and configure this version.

This version does not include the Mac Agent due to recent changes in macOS Tahoe 26.1, which is expected the week of November 3, 2025. After Tahoe 26.1 is available, additional agent updates will be completed and the Mac Agent will be published. It will then appear on the Community Security Patches page, and the full deployment package will be refreshed to include it.
