[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1059498, member: 52014"] I apologize for any confusion, but I want to clarify that the approach using user-mode PowerShell for post-execution process handling is not meant to replace a kernel mode driver in terms of security or control. The user-mode approach offers flexibility and can be suitable for certain use cases, but it does have limitations compared to a kernel mode driver in terms of deep system-level control and security enforcement. If you require the highest level of security and control, a kernel mode driver might be the more appropriate solution. Kernel mode drivers operate with higher privileges and can provide finer-grained control over system processes and operations. It's important to carefully evaluate your security requirements and consider the trade-offs when choosing between user-mode and kernel mode solutions. Depending on your specific needs, a combination of different security measures, such as kernel mode drivers, user-mode tools, and technologies like WDAC, might be the most effective approach. I encourage you to consult with security professionals and conduct a thorough risk analysis before making any significant changes to your security architecture. It's essential to prioritize security while also considering the impact on usability and user experience. [/QUOTE]
