Resolved an issue where the Net2.exe (Paxton Net2 Access Control) application could crash or freeze when EDR was installed.
Impact: Customers can now run Net2.exe reliably with EDR enabled, ensuring uninterrupted access control operations while maintaining endpoint protection.
→Improved Application Stability with EDR
Addressed a customer-specific issue where certain applications could crash while EDR was installed.
Impact: Enhances application compatibility and stability, reducing unexpected crashes when running EDR in customer environments.
→Improved VOIP Application Compatibility with EDR
