Resolution

 

 

To get started, go to support.broadcom.com and select the “Login” option on the top-right corner:

Go ahead and login with your credentials:

If you have not registered an account, you can register at this same portal by clicking on "Register" and following the steps:

Once you’re logged in, you should see your name appear on the top right:

 

Next, click on “My Downloads” from the menu on the left (Highlighted in yellow):

TIP 1: If you have a support login, but do not have any products available, you will need to obtain your Site ID and register that with your support account.  For information on this, check the "Adding a Site ID to your profile" section of article 142873, which will allow you to associate the entitlements to your account and allow you to download products and log support cases with Symantec Support.

For any issues or if your software is not listed as you expect, please contact Customer Care and they can help you get your account setup:

Tip 2: If your Site ID does not add in the product you were expecting, check your email for your "Contract Number" and contact Customer Care.
If you do not have your email any longer, contact your sales representative and they can help you locate this.

 

Once you are on the downloads page, you will see all the products your entitlement provides.

In this example, we will be searching for “Encryption”, which could show many different products depending on what your entitlements allow:

As you can see above, this entitlement allows for many different Encryption products.  Depending on which Encryption product you would like to use, click on the items to download.

 

TIP: If you are not sure which product to download, check each of the Scenarios below for guidance:




Scenario 1: SEE - If you need to download the "Symantec Endpoint Encryption" or "SEE" software, choose "Endpoint Encryption" from the list.

At the time of this writing, Symantec Endpoint Encryption version 12.0 would be the latest version.

Once you click on "Endpoint Encryption", you will get the following listed with "chevron" icon on the far right-hand side of the screen:

Once you click the chevron icon, you'll see a screen similar to the following with the available versions allowed under your entitlement:

We want to download the latest version available in the download portal. 

For At the time of this writing, Symantec Endpoint Encryption version 12 was the latest.  The following screen will appear:

TIP: Consult the "Current Version" article for more information on the current versions of all Encryption solutions.

If you agree to the "Broadcom Terms and Conditions", check the box and then click the download icon to start the download and save to your local system.

 



Scenario 2: PGP - If you need to download the PGP software, such as Symantec Encryption Management Server (SEMS) or the PGP server, click on any of the following products:

*Desktop Email Encryption

*Encryption Management Server

*File Share Encryption

*Drive Encryption

*Gateway Email Encryption

Each one of the above will allow you to download the SEMS/PGP server or the PGP/SED Client.   

For this example, I want to download the PGP server, so click on "Encryption Management Server" and you will see the following:

I want to download the latest version, so I am going to click on "10.5.1".  At the time of this writing, 10.5.1 was the latest.  

If you are doing a completely new install, get the PGP Server ISO.  

If you are doing an incremental update, get the PGP PUP 

Since I want to do a completely new install, I will download the ISO, and so I will choose "Symantec_Encryption_Web_10.5.1_Full.zip"

 

 

Scenario 3: PGP Standalone client - If you have a need to download the standalone client that does *not* communicate with the PGP Server, use this scenario as the guide.

First, in the My Downloads portal, type "Encryption".  Then click on any of the following options:

*Desktop Email Encryption
*File Share Encryption
*Drive Encryption

In this scenario, I will click on "File Share Encryption":

Expand the above, and select the version you are entitled to.  For this example, we want the latest version and at the time of this writing, 10.5.1 was the latest so we click on "10.5.1":
TIP: Consult the "Current Version" article for more information on the current versions of all Encryption solutions.

 

We want the download for Windows, so we will choose the "Symantec_Encryption_Desktop_10.5.1_Windows.zip file":

 

 

Scenario 4 - PGP Command Line 

To download PGP Command Line, go to the My Downloads, type in "PGP" in the search field and you may see the following options:

Click on the "PGP Command Line" in the product selection.

Next, expand the product selection by clicking on the "chevron" icon on the right side, and you will see the versions available for download:

We want the latest, and at the time of this writing, 10.5.1 was the latest so we click that:

Now simply download the version you want.  Since 10.5.1 is the latest (and only version on this branch at the time of this writing), we'll choose that and each of these downloads will provide Windows, Linux, macOS, AIX, HPUX and Solaris 

TIP: Consult the "Current Version" article for more information on the current versions of all Encryption solutions.
