Hello,
we are experiencing an issue with the latest Globalprotect version 6.0.1 and Windows 8.1 computers.
None of our Windows 8.1 computers was successfully upgraded from version 5.2.10, also clean install reports same issues:

The driver is failing signature validation on Windows 8.1. You'll probably want to open a case with TAC and share these logs so that they can validate if its a systemic issue across 8.1 running the latest updates or not since Windows 8.1 is a supported release for GlobalProtect 6.0. I unfortunately don't keep any Windows 8.1 images around to see if this is reproducible or not.
