   Deleted 40+ signatures (related to software versions with a very low
   probability of being active or deployed) to optimize standard catalog
   processing. This content is still available as custom signatures on demand
   if needed when requested through the support channel. Additionally, the
   number of deleted versions has been streamlined to support transformation
   into a single template, enabling one signature to efficiently cover the
   discovery of multiple versions.
