		LordKeren on July 19, 2024 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: CrowdStrike fixes start at "reboot up to 15 times"... While I will be the last person in line to defend Microsoft, I am not sure that disallowing 3P kernel mods is a workable solution. Crowdstrike and companies like it exist to fill a very real need within the windows ecosystem. I don’t foresee that suddenly going away now or Microsoft unilaterally forcing every company like crowdstrike out of business and taking over this role themselves

Mac does it, although that most definitely does not fill the same enterprise role as Windows.

It's possible to make userspace interfaces and permissions for this sort of thing.
