Chromium support for private Synthetic monitors

Chromium 92 is now the latest supported version for Synthetic-enabled ActiveGates installed on Ubuntu 18.04, 20.04, Red Hat, and CentOS 7 and 8, and bundled with the Windows ActiveGate installer. For more information, see Requirements for private synthetic locations.

SHA-2 signed installers on Windows 2008 R2

Starting with ActiveGate version 1.225, the installer is signed using the SHA-2 algorithm. Consequently, Windows 2008 R2 hosts are required to have SHA-2 code signing support installed. If you use Windows Update, the updates were offered to you automatically (KB4474419 and KB4490628). If, however, your Windows 2008 R2 system doesn't support verifying SHA-2 signed installers, ActiveGate update and installation won't work if Applocker is configured to block unknown publishers and/or security warnings may be displayed. For more information, see the Microsoft 2019 SHA-2 Code Signing Support requirement for Windows and WSUS announcement.
