Enhanced Security Measures in Place: To ensure a safer experience, we’ve implemented additional, temporary security measures for all users.

Hi Folks,
A year or so ago we tried to upgrade our Global Protect 5.0.3 to the recent prefered version with the result that many of our users get the chineese / asian letters in username BUG after the Upgrade.
Now we tried again with 5.1.6 and instead of Chineese Letters we get four QuestionsMarks for the Username after the Update.
I realy get annoyed about this update behavior. We seen it on a Windows 10 Education build 2004 and an Windows 10 Enterprise build 1809.
Here the Log Part from PANGPS after the Upgrade
(T4484)Debug(8355): 10/08/20 21:06:07:999 ----Portal Login starts----

Never face this issue.
We were running 5.2.2 and recently upgraded to 5.2.3 so far no issues like this.

Maybe you only face it when you upgrade from 5.0.x trail.

a short update on this case
This behavior will not happen if we update from 5.0.3 to 5.0.10. It has something to do with the change on the 5.1.x trail.
