Changes:

• Trusted Advisor redesign (former Security Advisor). We are happy to introduce the revamped Trusted Advisor, and it comes with an all-new appearance complete with a percentage score and rating. Notably, any newly detected or resolved issues will dynamically alter the percentage score to capture your attention. This score ranges from 0% to 100%, where 100% signifies the optimal score, while 0% indicates the lowest achievable score.
• Other Devices card redesign.
• Added confirmation dialog when removing a Scheduled Scan.
• The Legacy Dashboard option was removed, thank you all for your feedback!

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed a bug where Scan Durations would not display properly on scans longer than 24h.
• Fixed a bug where the “Restore default settings” button was not restoring some settings.

Kleczynski said the layoffs were part of a plan to separate the company into two separate business units, but denied that it planned to sell any part of the business.

The split — which was not previously made public — will see Malwarebytes separate its consumer and corporate-facing business units. The consumer business will focus on tools such as identity protection and VPN, while the remaining business will focus on enterprise-facing software like managed and endpoint detection, Kleczynski tells TechCrunch.
