13.1 Upgrade Checklist

You can upgrade to Change Guardian 5.2 from Change Guardian 5.1.1. If you have Change Guardian 5.1, upgrade first to Change Guardian 5.1.1.

You must upgrade both the Change Guardian server and the Policy Editor. The Change Guardian Agent for Windows are backward compatible.

NOTE:TLS 1.0 is not disabled by default in upgrade installations of the Change Guardian server, agents, and Policy Editor components in order to preserve backward compatibility with components that might not be upgraded yet. Once you upgrade all the components to the latest released versions, you can disable TLS 1.0. For more information, see Prerequisites of Disabling TLS 1.0.
