Additionally, SEP 14.3 introduced third-party application security through integration with the Windows AMSI (Antimalware Scan Interface) interface. This allows applications like PowerShell to route scripts to Symantec Endpoint Protection for analysis, with the client responding whether the script behavior is malicious, thus stopping attacks that leverage legitimate scripting tools.
