Celonis Advisory - CVE-2021-44228  Dear Customer, Celonis is aware of the recently announced security vulnerability (CVE-2021-44228) within Log4j, a common Java library used by many applications.Since the announcement, our teams have been working to assess any potential impact to Celonis customers, our products, Infrastructure and internal systems. We have identified actions for all customers who are using Celonis products or applications. More information can be found in this Article: Celonis Advisory - CVE-2021-44228 

Change to timestamps in the _CELONIS_CHANGE_DATE column for Celonis EMS Event Collection We’re changing how we use timestamps in the _CELONIS_CHANGE_DATE column for tables extracted during Celonis EMS Event Collection.  Previously, these timestamps were randomly generated and did not reflect the time that loading to the EMS data lake (Vertica) started. From December’s Data Lake Inserter release, these timestamps will indicate when loading to the EMS data lake (Vertica) actually started. If you’re using this column in your transformations, please check your business logic after the Data Lake Inserter release.
