About this tag
Dave Probert is a Microsoft engineer with deep expertise in the Windows kernel. On WindowsForum.com, discussions focus on his explanations of Windows 10 Isolated User Mode, a security architecture that protects the system from kernel exploits. Topics include trustlets, the Secure Kernel, and how processes like lsass.exe now run companion processes in a Secure System (e.g., LsaIso.exe for Credential Guard). These threads explore how Windows 10 isolates sensitive components to safeguard secrets and prevent attacks even if the kernel is compromised. The content highlights Probert's role in explaining these innovations to the community.
In this final video in the Windows 10 Isolated User mode series Dave takes us through several engineering aspects associated with trustlets. First he describes how lsass.exe (the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service responsible for enforcing security on Windows) now can have a companion...

This was seriously a treat for me. I had the privilege of spending time with the venerable Dave Probert who has been working on the Windows kernel for a long time. We discussed an interesting security issue which had up to this point never occurred to me - how do we protect ourselves from kernel...
