Update SMART Notebook: Get the latest features and keep your data secure. Learn moreSMART Notebook software versions 21.0 and earlier use a technology called TLS 1.0 and 1.1 to protect your data when it's sent over the internet. However, these older technologies now have some weaknesses that make them susceptible to attacks by malicious agents. To keep your data safe while using SMART software, SMART Notebook is phasing out the use of TLS 1.0 and 1.1 and implementing new protections.
To avoid disruptions and stay up-to-date with the best security practices, SMART recommends updating to the latest version SMART Notebook by July 2024. If you don't update by then, you’ll see an error message that says "Trial period has expired" even if you have an active SMART Notebook Plus (SMART Learning Suite) subscription.
