This is useful for two reasons: security (provides customer verification) and for tracking and routing purposes

17 Software Release Process 16 Major Release – A major release is defined to include several new product features that customers can utilize. There are typically two major releases per year. Customers are notified at least two weeks in advance before a Major Release. Major releases are installed on the Beta Cloud for several weeks prior to release on other production clouds. Maintenance Release – A maintenance release is defined to include bug fixes and minor enhancements but no new major features. Maintenance releases are typically planned six weeks after a Major Release which addresses bugs reported by customers and also found internally that can wait a few weeks before release. Customers are notified at least one week in advance before a Maintenance Release. Patch Updates Patches are typically performed weekly, but biweekly for each specific cloud (alternating 2 clouds of 4, every week) Also performed on an as needed basis to address ‘hot’ fixes that cannot wait for a scheduled weekly update. If service affecting, then a 24-48 hour notice will be provided on the Zscaler Trust site which can be subscribed to, to receive email alerts
