Enhancements
Anti-Malware
Fixes an issue where Anti-Malware status reports to the Windows Security Center do not work, if there are errors, or if the reports are disabled in the policy.
Resolves a possible issue where the Anti-Malware process crashes during the Endpoint Security Client upgrade.

If the Forensics database does not contain a detected file or process, it now generates a minimal report with reputation.
If a detected URL is not in the Forensics database, Forensics now generates a minimal report with reputation.
Fixes a very rare issue of an infinite loop in Forensics.
Improves the Forensics performance as the result of decreased number of unnecessary registry operations.
If the reputation service is not available, the Forensic Analysis no longer treats unsigned processes as trusted processes.
Fixes a very rare issue in the termination of trusted processes that are part of a Forensics incident.
Fixes a rare issue where Forensics can lock up when it receives a new policy.
Fixes an issue where the Forensic Analysis fails when the trigger file has a short name.
Enhances Forensics analysis to identify attacks that start with Windows shortcut (LNK) files.
Adds a new screen to view all AMSI and LNK target content in an incident.
Fixes a Forensics report issue where a terminated process can appear in the "Already Terminated Processes" and "Terminated Processes" sections of the Remediation view.
The Remediation section of the Forensics report now mentions failures to access or use the remediation service.
Compliance
