Impact

This change will impact customers who rely on Technopedia Product ID/Release ID & Names, or previously discovered data mapped to the old product will be mapped to the new product. The change requires the customer to manage downstream processes and reporting in their organization.

Note:

->    As part of the new CCN process, releases with the updated name have already been created in Technopedia.

->   The migration of discovered data mappings will occur after 1, 2, or 4 weeks, depending on the CCN type. For this case, it will be two weeks.

->     Accordingly, the New Release IDs and mappings are included in the spreadsheet to help manage downstream processes and organizational reporting.

The attached spreadsheet provides the complete list of all software products, releases, and AR Mappings impacted by the Manufacturer name from “McAfee Data Exchange Layer (DXL) to the Trellix Data Exchange Layer (DXL). This includes the new mapping details for the updated product name.

Timeframe

Expected Time to Implementation (ETA):  June 24th 2026.

Thank you.
