Why do Sensor Update policies need to be configured for each OS (Windows, Mac, Linux)?

ATo bundle the Sensor and Prevention policies together into a deployment package

BSensor Update policies are OS dependent

CTo assist with auditing and change management

DThis is false. One policy can be applied to all Operating Systems

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

Sensor Update policies need to be configured for each OS (Windows, Mac, Linux) because Sensor Update policies are OS dependent. A Sensor Update policy is a policy that controls how and when the Falcon sensor is updated on a host. Sensor Update policies are specific to each operating system type, as different operating systems have different sensor versions, features, and requirements.Therefore, you need to create and assign separate Sensor Update policies for each operating system type in your environment1.

But can't we just apply one policy to all Operating Systems?

Ha! Imagine trying to bundle the Sensor and Prevention policies together. That's like trying to put a square peg in a round hole. Clearly, option B is the way to go.

Hmm, I'm not quite sure about this one. I'd say option D looks good - it would be a lot easier to manage if we could just use one policy for all OSes.

I think option B is the correct answer. Sensor Update policies are definitely OS-dependent, as the sensor technology varies across different operating systems.
