verinice 1.17 out now

SerNet has released version 1.17 of the open source ISMS tool verinice. The verinice.TEAM presents an extensive update, which is especially relevant for working with the Modernized IT Baseline Protection of the German BSI: An optimized modelling as well as the possibility for preliminary hybrid modelling are decisive innovations. All details with extensive screenshots can be found in the Release Notes. The new version is available in the verinice.SHOP (for standalone users) or in the verinice.PRO repository.

Two important notes for verinice users come with the update:

1. Automatic client updates are not possible for verinice 1.17! We have compiled all necessary information about manual updates in a HowTo. To update the verinice.PRO server to version 1.17, please use the package manager "yum" as usual (see details on the verinice.PRO update).
2. When verinice 1.17 is started for the first time, all previous modelling in the Modernized IT Baseline Protection will be migrated to the new modelling. Therefore, please create a backup of all your information networks before each new installation or the first start of verinice 1.17.
