    Hello all,
    After upgrading clienta sep from 14.2 to 14.3 RU3, there is an error "cannot assign a client authentication token. There was a general communication failure" (see attachment SEP Issue.png). environment: GUP: 14.3.5433.3000 SEPM: 14.3.5413.3000 SEP: 14.3.5433.3000

    Any ideas?
    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Do you use EDR?

    Hello.

    This issue is still persistent in RU4 (14.3.7393.4000)!
    Symantec process has high CPU usage all the time from 30 to 60%.
    Application is flooding path C:\ProgramData\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\14.3.7393.4000.105\Data\CmnClnt\ccSubSDK
    File amount is > 2000 instead of ~100 on healthy installation.

    Fresh windows installation is affected as well as existing machines.

    Is there any additional information?
