Product:
BigFix Inventory Catalog update 20250825.

Published site version:

BigFix Inventory Discovery - version 25

Features:

 Key updates in HCL BigFix Inventory Catalog 20250825:

   -

   Discovery of 40+ new software versions with the use of standard and
   template signatures including but not limited to the following software
   manufacturers like  Adobe, AutoDesk, Microsoft & Oracle.
   -

   Deleted 20+ signatures (which refer to software and versions with a very
   low probability of being active or deployed) from Catalog to optimize
   standard catalog processing. This content is still available as custom
   signatures on demand if needed when requested through the support channel.
   -

   Added Template signatures to cover the deleted signatures where the
   version of a component is detected automatically, and a specific version is
   dynamically added to the catalog.
   -

   Added new Publisher Jamf to Catalog
   -

   Added discovery and usage capability for Microsoft Teams (for both
   classic and Windows store versions).
   -
