Safari Safeguard module
For Cortex XDR apps earlier than version 8.5.0, an issue in iOS versions 17.4 and higher causes the Cortex XDR agent's Safari Safeguard module, and anything based on Safari Web Extensions, to stop working after a short period of time. Apple has confirmed the issue, but a complete fix resolving the issue has not been released yet.
Cortex XDR 8.5.0 includes a fix with a workaround for the issue that Apple introduced in iOS 17.4. With this fix, Safari Safeguard is now expected to work on all supported iOS versions.
