I think they had to do something to address the barrage of attacks on their architechture of the OS - so there will be a lot of 'back-of-house' changes that most will never know about - but will make the systems running it far more resillient to attacks.
It also has some features, or so I have read, to prevent browser hijacks and so on. Probably nothing you can't buy anywhere else as third party, but highly useful none the less.
