I saw a rewrite of some functionality from a vendor (rhymes with mcafsee) as well. They decided to start running lsof to find open files. This can be excruciatingly slow and cpu intensive on macOS. It was running it near constantly effectively turning machines into beach ball render farms.
I suppose avoiding kernel panics is an improvement but let’s be real: these enterprise vendors have always made shit software and rarely keep up with OS releases or updates. They’re not about to change any time soon.
Indeed, but they are what causes OS vendor to actually do something about it.
Android now is requiring hardware memory tagging on ARM, Fortify by default, and Treble requires out-of-process for new drivers exactly because of the same kind of issues.
