Nice stuff! You mentioned the software update scan being triggered among other things by new assignments reaching the client via Policy. I'm assuming you mean new software update assignments specifically, right? For another question, does this also apply to ADRs? I believe it's common for a lot of customers to have Endpoint Protection setup with a pretty tight scan schedule, like daily or even more frequent. So every time these ADRs run (and find new updates) and update the Software Update Group and hence the assignment, would that also trigger a Software Update Scan on the next Policy retrieval? That would explain an issue I've been seeing in our environment where clients would do Software Update Scans way more frequently than the schedule is actually set at.
