Endpoint Security 2022.1

We have updated the Antivirus SDK from version 3.0.1.280 to 3.0.1.283 to address an issue with the installation of the AV drivers on systems that run Windows 11 with HVCI (Hypervisor-protected Code Integrity) option enabled, where the drivers may end up in an unresponsive state unless a reboot is performed.

Windows 11 was released on October 5th, 2021, and is supported for Patch & Remediation, Application Control and AntiVirus modules on the 8.6 U2 release (8.6.0.30).
With the release of 8.6.0.40, Windows 11 is now also supported for the Device Control module.

We’ve updated the OpenSSL library from 1.1.1h to 1.1.1l to improve the overall security posture of the product.

• OpenSSL library updated from 1.1.1h to 1.1.1l
• 7-zip updated from version 9.20 to version 19.0.0.0 on the IES agent

Customers should upgrade their Ivanti Endpoint Security installations to 8.6.0.40 to benefit from these security improvements.

Ivanti has released Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management, a cloud-native patch management solution, that helps organizations better protect against threats, including ransomware, by arming them with actionable intelligence on active risk exposure, patch reliability and device compliance, health and risk.

Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management delivers a single pane of glass experience that provides visibility into the devices that it manages in the cloud alongside those managed via on-prem Ivanti patch management solutions. This enables existing Ivanti Endpoint Security customers to transition from on-premises to cloud patch management at their own pace instead of being forced into a “rip and replace” approach.

Additionally, existing Ivanti Neurons customers can expand their cloud-native capabilities to include Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management to evolve their vulnerability remediation strategy to a risk-based approach.
