PROTECTION DRIVER FOR DEFENSE AGAINST PROCESS OR THREAD TERMINATION

摘要

Computer systems Methods (implemented through instructions carried by a medium) and apparatus for protecting a process or thread (102, 202) against forced terminations are disclosed. The protection is accomplished by monitoring of commands targeting the processes or threads (102, 202) under protection. In one example embodiment (100), Operating Systems' API (108) usage is monitored by a Operating System Device Driver (104) using kernel hooks. In another example embodiment (200), that monitoring occurs using kernel callbacks.
