[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1080265, member: 32260"] I wrote in the WDAC help that it is robust against exploits. It is not the same as protecting from exploits. I meant that even if something would be exploited, the attack could be stopped anyway. Exploits often use temporary files dropped to the user's Temp folder, and such an attack vector can be blocked in the Super_Safe setup. One of many examples can be abusing OLE objects in MS Office documents. The default WDAC settings allow executables dropped there, so one can consider using additional anti-exploit protection (for example tools included in the WHHLight package). [/QUOTE]
