Hi all,

I am pleased to announce a new version of Kerio Connect is available for you to download. Highlights of the release include replacing the antivirus engine (powered by Sophos) with an antivirus engine (powered by Bitdefender) and numerous bug fixes.

Bitdefender will be phased in as the antivirus engine for both Kerio Control and Kerio Connect. The Sophos antivirus engine will continue to work normally in older deployments and receive updates according to the following schedule.

- March 23, 2017 - 9.2.2 released with Kerio Antivirus powered by Bitdefender in all new installations
When upgrading to or installing 9.2.2, Bitdefender will be the anitvirus engine.
Sophos will continue to operate on installations running earlier versions of the product.

- March 28, 2018* - Sophos antiviurs engine in all deployments will no longer receive updates. This affects installations running version 9.2.1 and earlier of Kerio Control and Kerio Connect.
*Dates are subject to change.

Refer to the release notes for a complete list of improvements.

If I have the old Sophos Antivirus engine licensed, will this license be valid for the new Kerio Antivirus as well? So can I just upgrade from 9.2.1 to 9.2.2 with my licensed Sophos Antivirus, and Kerio Antivirus will then remain licensed furthermore?

Yes, integrated antivirus remains licensed if you have a valid Software Maintenance with antivirus extension. The license contains "Antivirus extension" regardless what AV engine is currently used in the product (Sophos, Bitdefender). So for Kerio Connect 9.2.2 no license change is required.
