When I talk about prevention instead of reaction; the point is to stop the execution of foreign code. ie: Don't let it run in the first place! If we continue reacting, we're still allowing code to run, and then respond to its potentially hostile payload. This prevention approach works with all versions of Windows that have Software Restriction Policy or AppLocker. eg: WinXP Professional and Vista/Win7 Business/Ultimate/Enterprise versions.]]> aussiebear Wed, 08 Sep 2010 12:07:19 +0100 http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/20097-security-experts-despair#comment-3572 http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/20097-security-experts-despair#comment-3569 Only using Administrator account when you need to install/remove applications or update the system. Password this account. => Using Limited/Standard user account for everything else. => Upgrading the version of Windows you have, to one that has Software Restriction Policy feature. Then using that as a whitelist. ie: Deny all executables BUT legit ones for your system. => Verify/check the legitimacy of apps BEFORE installing them. The approach is to PREVENT, not to REACT.]]> aussiebear Wed, 08 Sep 2010 11:57:29 +0100 http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/20097-security-experts-despair#comment-3569 http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/20097-security-experts-despair#comment-3563 Alereon Wed, 08 Sep 2010 11:02:30 +0100 http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/20097-security-experts-despair#comment-3563 http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/20097-security-experts-despair#comment-3557 robert3892 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:32:27 +0100 http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/20097-security-experts-despair#comment-3557
