[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 801372, member: 32260"] That is true for Windows 10 S mode. WDAC set to S mode (on the normal Windows 10) will block all drivers (including kernel drivers), all executables (including .NET DLLs) not signed by Microsoft. It can be bypassed by fileless malware introduced via Sponsors. But, you can also block most Sponsors in WDAC. The system will run very restricted (hardly usable), but most malware will fail to run, and the blocked malware processes will be logged. Furthermore, you can use WDAC in Audit mode - everything non-Microsoft and Sponsors will be run, and logged. In Audit mode, you can set to block all sponsors including those used by system processes, because they will not be blocked, but only logged. The malware can be identified by analyzing the log.
