E81.10 adds support for Endpoint on Windows 10 19H1 (v1903). Anti-Malware users are only supported with a required server hotfix as seen in sk141033
When a file is determined as malicious by Threat Emulation, the TE report is in a new format. The report is now available from the Client UI and the SmartLog entry. The new format requires server versions shown in the "Management Requirements" section of the E81.10 Endpoint Security Client for Windows Release Notes.
This release adds a new authentication capability for VPN clients: Authentication with a CNG certificate.
This release introduces 32-bit and 64-bit download packages for the Threat Prevention Client. Important: The Threat Prevention package includes an initial set of Anti-Malware signatures. The complete set updates right after the client connects to the update server.
Anti-Exploit now protects against the Windows Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) vulnerability, as defined in CVE-2019-0708.
Enhancements
Anti-Malware
Fixes an issue where using Anti-Malware in the "Windows Security Center" would suspend Anti-Malware.
Fixes an issue where an Anti-Malware scheduled scan does not start after waking the machine from sleep.
Fixes an issue where Endpoint upgrades from versions prior to 80.92 fail while the Anti-Malware scan is active.
Fixes an issue where Microsoft VPN and Direct Access do not work when the Anti-Malware blade is installed.
Improves security by using "protected process" support for Anti-Malware and firewall processes. This feature is the default when the client runs Windows 19H1, which requires a server hotfix for Anti-Malware users. For more information, see sk141033.
Threat Emulation and Anti-Exploit
Fixes a rare false positive with the Return Oriented Programming (ROP) detection in Anti-Exploit.
Anti-Exploit now protects against the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) vulnerability, as defined in CVE-2019-0708:
This represents a critical flaw found in the Remote Desktop Protocol of Windows allowing for either Remote Code Execution or Denial of Service attacks. Vulnerable systems protected by Anti-Exploit, include Windows 7 SP1 and Windows 2008R2. To learn more, see sk154232.
Note: Users who run SandBlast Agent with a third party Anti-Virus (AV) should be aware that Anti-Exploit is turned off in the presence of third party AVs. For this protection to be enabled, you must allow Anti-Exploit to work with third party AVs, as detailed in sk154454.
Anti-Ransomware, Behavioral Guard and Forensics
Anti-Ransomware Honeypots are now less likely to be skipped by certain ransomware families.
Reduces false positives in Anti-Ransomware, when using MS Office applications.
Fixes an issue so that the Backup and Restoration database does not grow beyond a certain limit.
Fixes an issue so that the Anti-Ransomware backup folder does not grow beyond a certain limit.
Anti-Ransomware now correctly backs up and restores for users who are explicitly named "temp".
Improves Forensics performance, when the system is waking up from hibernate and sleep.
Improves Forensics performance during OS upgrades.
Fixes a rare Forensics crash that can occur during the analysis, if the Entry Point is unknown.
Fixes a very rare issue that can occur where the Forensic Analysis takes hours to complete.
Fixes an issue of terminating processes that may be spawned, while the Forensics analysis is ongoing.
Fixes an incorrect remediation status in the Forensics report when copying a malicious file from a network share.
Improves Forensics to deal with command line parameters more effectively during an incident analysis.
If Reputation is unavailable, unsigned processes will no longer appear with incorrect details in the Reputation screen.
The IP Reputation is now calculated even when there are no http or https operations.
The Forensics Report now correctly shows the World Map of unknown or malicious IP addresses even when there are no http or https connections.
Media Encryption and Port Protection
Fixes additional cases where the Offline Data Access tool does not always start in Read-Only mode, if write protection is configured in the system.
Firewall and Application Control
Fixes a rare issue where the Endpoint Security Client stalls during an upgrade and the network is lost.
Fixes an issue where 'disabling Wi-Fi connection upon Ethernet connection' does not work if both connect to the same router or network.
Adds support to Device Guard features based on Hypervisor Enforced Code Integrity (HVCI).
Updater
Enhances the signature update mechanism to be more resilient during failures, and to hold the most up-to-date signatures.
URL Filtering
Reduces end-user popups and notifications to the items that require user knowledge or intervention, similar to the behavior of the other Endpoint blades.
General
Fixes a very rare issue where an installation from the "Initial Client" fails, when Windows 7 is missing KB2533623.
Fixes a rare issue when an Anti-Bot service uninstall may fail on the client with an unclear message.
Starting from E80.85, SandBlast Agent improves coverage of malicious threats by sending anonymized Incident related data to the Check Point Threat Cloud. This feature is turned on by default. For more information, including how to disable this feature, refer to sk129753.
