First stage - Ramp up
Second stage – Policy update
In the beginning of this stage, a policy change was made and deployed (Note – the policy change actually occurred at the very end of the previous interval, as explained in the methodology section).
Third stage – Profile update
Fourth Stage – Fingerprints update
In this interval, a fingerprints database change was introduced and deployed. This caused the Fingerprints version to advance, making the endpoint clients’ Fingerprints out of date.
