    Hi, this KB #, like Defender antimalware platform updates, always remains the same. The update package gets released periodically with bug fixes and is currently rolling out gradually so you found a moment in time between versions...

    We are publishing a new page shortly in the MDE documentation with what's new per version, hopefully this will help clarify.
