Deployment Schedule:

  • US & EU Region Portals: July 3, 2025, at 10:00 AM

What’s Included in This Update:

Xcitium Client Security for Windows (XCSW)

Improvements

  • Improved platform performance by optimizing how event data is written to the database, shifting from individual writes to more efficient batch processing.
  • Updated desktop and Start menu shortcuts for the XCS Agent on Windows to display the correct Xcitium branding, ensuring a consistent user experience.
  • Enhanced XCS Agent user interface by removing outdated Self-Protection options to reduce confusion. Self-protection functionality remains fully active in the background.
  • Enhanced ransomware protection for network shares by adding the ability to enable or disable protection, manage exclusions, and log configuration changes. A new control panel with these options is now available under the Antivirus settings page.

Bug-Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where quotation marks were incorrectly removed from autorun scripts during script analysis, which could impact execution behavior.
  • Fixed an issue where a vulnerable driver was not processed correctly due to missing file attribute checks.
  • Fixed an issue that caused the XCS agent to unexpectedly stop running on certain endpoints, ensuring devices remain in a protected state.
  • Fixed an issue where the agent name under Program Features and All Applications displayed the old name “Comodo Client Security” instead of “Xcitium Client Security”.
  • Fixed an issue where the XCS main GUI window could block system reboot or shutdown if left open.
  • Fixed an issue where the XCS Firewall driver was not properly removed from network adapter properties when Self-Protection was enabled, which could disrupt internet access after uninstalling the Firewall component.
  • Fixed an issue where XCS branding reverted to Comodo instead of Xcitium after reinstalling XCS, even when a profile with custom branding was applied.
