[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1004753, member: 32260"] It is an important enhancement of the well known Windows built-in features (SRP + SmartScreen). The idea of SRP was started in the era of Windows XP and was continued/enhanced via Applocker and WDAC (MDAC). SmartScreen was introduced with Windows 8. A similar approach was implemented many years ago in the Comodo AV, except that untrusted files were not blocked but contained in the Sandbox. I am not sure when this idea was implemented in Kaspersky products, but this is also a very comprehensive smart-default-deny (advanced tweaks are required). Several years ago I made Hard_Configurator for home users, which is a realization of the same idea as Smart App Control (I took the idea from Comodo and used SRP+SmartScreen). If I correctly recall, OSArmor does not use file reputation lookup. If so, then it is another kind of security. [/QUOTE]
