HP Inc. SoftwareComponent 1.56.3369.0 Update appear on Windows Update?

Recently, I received an update from the Windows Update with the name HP Inc. SoftwareComponent 1.56.3369.0. That is an update, but I don't understand why an update by HP appears on Windows Update. Can anyone tell me or explain to me further what that update version for actually? Is it safe to proceed with it?

HP and other vendors now include some software with normal Windows updates and that is normal.

HP:     It seems that 1.56.3369.0 is breaking hp computers that are Azure AD joined.   Effected computers all received this update and all began having issues with the browser being slow (multiple browsers).  

Was there any update to TPM in 1.56.3369.0?

Can you please check and let us know if clients who got the  1.56.3369.0 update are reporting browser issues on Azure AD joined computers?

Same problem. I am also join to Azure AD on a company laptop. I was able to track down this update to a driver in device manager under Software Components > HP Application Enabling Services. I tried rolling back which seemed to have helped. Hope this helps you out as well.
