Installation time

Support reference: STORM-12440

SES Evolution agent installation time in a hardened environment has been greatly reduced by limiting the number of WMI requests.

Some USB device drivers could cause all devices to be blocked when the SES Evolution agent was installed on the workstation. This issue has been fixed.

To work around this problem until Microsoft fixes it, disable the following system protections in the Administration Console, Agents > Settings > Active Features menu:

• Stack pivoting,

• EDR detection bypass,

• Fileless attack.
