Cytomic Data Watch requirements

Supported platforms

On 30 June 2025, our Windows protection for these OS versions will become End of Life (EOL): Windows XP, Vista, Server 2003, and Server 2008 (Windows 2008 R2 will continue to be supported). After the EOL date, the product license will be automatically removed from all computers that run these OS versions, and you will not be able allocate licenses to affected computers. Computers without a license will have all protections disabled, lose access to Collective Intelligence, stop receiving signature file updates, and cease to run assigned tasks. See https://www.watchguard.com/wgrd-trust-center/end-of-life-policy.

Cytomic Data Watch supports Microsoft Windows platforms from version XP SP3 and higher and Windows Server 2003 SP1 and higher. Other operating systems such as Linux or macOS are not supported.

The Microsoft Filter Pack component is included in the Office suite, though only the IFilter components corresponding to Office suite products installed on users’ computers are installed automatically. To ensure that all 2010 version components are available on the computer, see Installing Microsoft Filter Pack separately.
