Kaspersky Software Updater End of Life
What will LogMeIn Central be using to patch third party applications now that Kaspersky Software Updater is no longer supported by Kaspersky?

Hi Daycom-mfarah, welcome to the community.
My understanding is we should have a replacement before the end of the year. I will post an update once there is a more accurate ETA that I can share.
Any further progress on this front? Thanks.
I'm sorry, Paul, I don't have any more to share yet, though I can say the search for a suitable replacement is ongoing.
Hello,
Any further update on this matter. We have been waiting quite a while for Kaspersky to be replaced.
Thanks,
-Paul
juliomonteiro / jmonteiro We switched to a BitDefender based security solution some time ago, though the LogMeIn desktop application is currently using the Kaspersky updater to help run application updates. This is currently being examined for a replacement solution as well, which I expect to have more information on in the coming weeks.
Can you tell me where I have this official information from LogMeIn.
LMI uses the Kaspersky Software Updater to patch third party applications
Yes, LMI uses the Kaspersky Software Updater to patch third party applications such as the Flash plugin, Acrobat Reader, etc. So if you enable third party patching through LogMeIn Central, LMI Central deploys/installs the Kaspersky Software Updater on the managed PCs.
So Kaspersky Software Updater is what LMI uses for application patching? OR am I missing something...
Do you have plans to migrate away from the Kaspersky Software Updater?
