[QUOTE="bazang, post: 1113920, member: 114717"] Because of the secrecy, I surmised that you had done something more complex, but this is a well know thing even before WDAC. Threat actors have used GPOs, AppLocker and SRP to block security software. They would complete their attack and then before leaving the targeted information system (e.g. entire organizational network) they would remove their malicious services, clean-up associated attack files, and then finally create a policy of "* = Block" and push it as they exited. Then many systems in the network would get bricked. The point of it all was to very effectively thwart any attempts at forensic analysis (e.g. of data in primary memory [RAM]). [/QUOTE]
