Authors list

This is to inform you that we have successfully published the service release of both ESET Endpoint Antivirus and ESET Endpoint Security 8.1 and the installation binaries are henceforth available online on our global website and in the software repository of ESET PROTECT. 

As with every endpoint rollout released after version 8.0.2039.x, it is important to mention, that once enough feedback is collected and no problems are observed with this build (30-60 days), you can expect to be informed about the readiness and schedule of the microPCU (micro Program Component Update), that will be offered to all 8.0.x endpoints depending on their individual configuration.
