Improvements and fixes
Adds a new health analyzer rule to check whether Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI) integration is enabled, and, if it is, to confirm that AMSI protection is functioning as expected. If AMSI protection isn't functioning as expected, the new health analyzer rule will notify SharePoint farm administrators through a health analyzer report, and provide recommended steps to fix the issue. For more information, see Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI) protection may not be working (SharePoint Server).
Note: To get the improvement, you have to install KB 5002494 together with this update.
