1 - The macOS sensor reports a file write event at the time a process opens the file. This event is based on the requested access mask. It is not based on actual writes. Even if the process does not write anything in the file, a file write event occurs.
2 - Currently available eBPF-based sensors (for RHEL/CentOS 8.0 and SUSE 12&15) do not support isolation or banning.
3 - TLS cert swapping support is for sensor versions Windows 6.2.3-win and macOS 6.2.5-osx and above.
4 - SHA-256 sensor support begins with 6.2.x sensors for both Windows and macOS. Check with VMware Carbon Black Support for any updates about other sensors that can generate this hash type.
SHA-256 hashes are reported in addition to MD5 hashes. They can be used to report information to the Event Forwarder (v3.4.0 or later) and are also displayed on relevant pages in the console. See https://github.com/carbonblack/cb-event-forwarder for information on installing and configuring the Event Forwarder. See Event Forwarder.
