About the Secure Endpoint Agent

The Secure Endpoint Agent is a small software client that resides on devices managed in the Secure Endpoint Console. After the agent is initially installed on a new device, the agent is activated with its first connection to the Absolute Monitoring Center.

Each agent package includes software specific to its supported operating system, including the agent and its associated components, an installer, and a readme file.

Operating system	Supported versions

Agent improvements and fixes

The following fixes and improvements are available in each agent version:

Agent Version	Component	Component version	Platform	Fixes and improvements
7.10.0.1	Anti-Malware (AVP)	1.0.0.1803	Windows	When a new Anti-Malware policy configuration is deployed to a device and a full scan is triggered, the results of the completed scan are now immediately available in the Anti-Malware report.
	Full-disk Encryption (ESP)			When a new Full-Disk Encryption Status policy configuration is deployed to a device and a full scan is triggered, the results of the completed scan are now immediately available in the Full-Disk Encryption Status report.
	Application Persistence (RAR)	7.10.0.3		When the Report higher versions as Compliant check box is selected in an Application Persistence policy for Microsoft SCCM, and a device is upgraded to SCCM version 5.00.8853.1000, the device is now reported as Compliant in the Application Persistence report.
7.10.0.2	Component manager (CTES)	1.0.0.2209	Windows	A number of issues that caused the component manager to delay uploading data collection payloads have been fixed. Previously, if you used a disk image to deploy the agent to new devices, the newly activated devices may have showed as duplicates of the re-imaged device. This issue is now fixed. To address a performance issue, the Secure Endpoint Agent no longer detects and reports a status of "Packet inspection detected" in the Component Manager > Status field. The status is now either Healthy or No Data.
