Introduction

In order to block users from updating the software, it is necessary to block traffic to https://apps.cognillo.com.

The

...

‘Check for Updates’ path for the SharePoint Essentials Toolkit

...

is:

https://apps.cognillo.com/appupdates/essentials/

...

*-version*.exe

Users who subscribe to our automated email notifications for the update will also have

...

these links:

You may add a DNS entry to block apps.cognillo.com

...

or redirect traffic for all network users.

Blocking (by DNS entry (redirect to invalid location) or firewall) will ensure

...

users will not be able to update using links within the tool or manually from our website or email notifications.

See our User Guide ("SharePoint Essentials Toolkit - Installation & Deployment (MS Word)") for more information, and details on changing the auto-update frequency in the tool.
