Why I do not manage to see all the News & Alerts?

Some news are private. You need then to log in with your DS Passport in order to be able to see them all.


Indeed, some news are only accessible to a type of customer and/or a service.
It depends then on 1) the type of customer you are (DS Direct Licensee or VAR), 2) the Customer Support Services you belong to (Secure, Advantage, Enterprise, Developer Support or Success Partner).
This is why, depending on your profile and the customer Support Service you subscribed, some news are not accessible.
