[srivastavad]

We are excited to introduce the latest update, version 7.4.2 GA, packed with a range of notable major features that will significantly enhance your FortiSOAR experience. These improvements have been carefully designed to address real-world challenges:

1. Enhanced MSSP Architecture: We understand the evolving needs of MSSPs, and with this release, we've taken significant steps to provide advanced support. Now, you have the ability to control where playbooks are executed, whether on the master or tenant level. This offers greater flexibility and customization for your specific requirements. Additionally, finer control over data sharing means you can now share only high-severity incidents with your MSSPs. You can remotely download agent logs, ensuring you have access to crucial information when you need it. Our enhanced reporting framework and SLA management improvements further empower you to streamline your MSSP operations.

   Real-World Benefit: Streamline your MSSP operations, reduce response time, and ensure the right data is shared with your MSSPs.
   
   

2. Low Code/No Code Playbook Development: We've made building and debugging playbooks easier than ever before. With the ability to simulate playbook runs automatically using last execution data or custom data, you can identify and resolve issues swiftly. This agile approach to playbook development saves you valuable time and resources.

   Real-World Benefit: Accelerate incident response by quickly creating and fine-tuning playbooks, minimizing downtime during critical security incidents.
   
   

3. MS-Word Report Templates: Our new feature allows you to design report templates in MS-Word and seamlessly import them into FortiSOAR. This means you can maintain your existing, rich MS-Word templates and inject dynamic data sections for FortiSOAR to populate. With well-documented guidelines and sample templates, this feature empowers you to create professional and informative reports effortlessly.

   Real-World Benefit: Save time on report creation and maintain your organization's branding by using your existing templates while leveraging FortiSOAR's dynamic data capabilities for enhanced reporting.
   
   

4. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Support: Security is paramount, and we've made it easier for you to protect your FortiSOAR environment. With out-of-the-box support for Google 2FA, you can enhance the security of your FortiSOAR instance and safeguard sensitive data from unauthorized access.

   Real-World Benefit:  Reduce the risk of unauthorized access and potential breaches.
   
   

5. Admin and Usability Enhancements: We haven't stopped at the major features; we've also made various improvements in admin and usability features. These enhancements make it easier for your team to navigate and manage your FortiSOAR instance efficiently.

   Real-World Benefit: Increase productivity and reduce the learning curve for new users, ensuring your team can make the most of FortiSOAR's capabilities from day one.
