[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 839698, member: 32260"] Yes and No. H_C is a GUI to simplify and automatize the implementation and management of [COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)][B]SRP[/B][/COLOR] and some other [B][COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)]Windows Policies[/COLOR][/B] + its own tweaks and [B][COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)]features[/COLOR][/B]. [B]SysHardener does not use Windows built-in SRP. [/B]It can use some other Windows Policies and REG tweaks to block/restrict scripts and apply some restrictions/hardening. It also does not have any diagnostic features. Yes, on Windows Home the GPO is not installed, and using H_C is far safer and convenient than using REG tweaks, Event Viewer, etc. But, WD Application Control can be used (but not configured) also on Windows Home, especially in the enterprise environment. The H_C can be used in the home environment on Windows Enterprise editions to quickly and safely configure SRP and some important Windows Policies. This will be much more convenient and safer for most of the home users than using GPO. For advanced users, it will be only a matter of knowledge and convenience. The experts will probably use only a minority of SRP settings, and will rely on Applocker and WD Application Control. Such a setup is more appropriate when the computer (laptop) is used both in the home and enterprise environments. [/QUOTE]
