SaaS Updates for May 18, 2016

Yesterday, Google announced that it was disabling both SSLv3 and RC4 support for Gmail SMTP servers in 30 days. Microsoft released an update that brings the OneDrive app to the Windows 10 PC and the Surface Hub, letting you open, edit, and share files without having to sync them to your device. Additionally, Microsoft rolled out new eDiscovery enhancements to the Office 365 Security & Compliance Center.

Disabling Support for SSLv3 and RC4 for Gmail SMTP in 30 Days – Last September, we announced plans to no longer support two very old security systems called SSLv3 and RC4. As mentioned in Adam Langley’s announcement, these systems are no longer secure and pose a risk to those still using them. Because of these issues, after June 16, 2016, we will disable both SSLv3 and RC4 support at Google’s SMTP servers and on Gmail’s web servers.

Try the OneDrive App for Windows 10 on Your PC to Access All Your Files – We’re continually working on making the OneDrive experience on Windows 10 even better. Today, we’re releasing an update that brings the OneDrive app to your Windows 10 PC and the Surface Hub─a top requested feature on our UserVoice forum. The new OneDrive sync client already comes pre-installed on Windows 10 PCs, allowing users to easily access their synced files through File Explorer. But this new app is a great touch-friendly complement to sync that lets you open, edit and share any of your personal or work files without having to sync them to your device.

New Enhancements to Office 365 eDiscovery Further Simplify the eDiscovery Process – To save you time and make it easier to perform investigations and eDiscovery from one central location, we have released several eDiscovery enhancements to the Office 365 Security & Compliance Center, including case management, search, hold and export. These new eDiscovery enhancements further strengthen the rich set of eDiscovery capabilities already present in Office 365 to help you quickly investigate and meet legal and regulatory obligations from the Security & Compliance Center.
