Will this only apply to new profiles and what’s kEvP64.sys?

We have been informed by Xcitium that this is not something that is customer facing and not a release item as the issue with detection has been fixed inside the application meaning no rules needed.

In regards to “ITA-117 – Remote Control app released for iOS allowing mobiles to connect to PC’s.” we have been informed that this might not be visible on the release date as it is still going through the rigorous checks by Apple.
