Well, I knew this was coming, just not so soon.
Microsoft announced a little while ago that they were going to kill off MS Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit (EMET) EMET is supposed to reach end of life on July 31, 2018. but since I am on the Windows Insider track I got an update this week and after the reboot Windows informed me that it had removed EMET as it is no longer compatible.
The good news is that MS has given us a replacement. The new application is called Windows Defender Exploit Guard. It is possible to convert existing EMET configurations from the EMET xml format to the new Defender format, so there is no reason that IT divisions will have to go with out protection as you should be able to install the latest Insider Preview and test the converted ruleset with your applications now, well ahead of the fall update that is expected to roll out this change to the general populace.
