Agent version 5.5.2 or later replaces the Product Improvement Program (PIP) with a new, more efficient, and more secure product telemetry framework.
To simplify the management experience, the new framework is integrated with Trellix Agent management extension and client. This integration eliminates the need for a separate PIP extension. Agent version 5.6.0 or later installer removes any previously installed PIP extension and PIP client. To make these changes as transparent as possible, we have maintained the name of the Server Setting in ePO - On-prem and maintained previous PIP settings with this new capability.
