We are delighted to announce the availability of version 20190304193624 of Chef Automate 2.

## Improvements

- On the Fast Track: We changed the CIS Windows Server 2012R2 V2.2.1, CIS Windows Server 2016 V1.0.0, and STIG Windows Server 2016 V001.006 compliance profiles controls to be faster and smaller on domain controller instances.
- A11y: Link colors across Automate are now consistent and accessible.
- Just So: Manually added nodes are now grouped under the Automate node manager.
