A system for optimizing the security of embedded, mobile devices such as personal data assistants and Smartphones by protecting against soft and hard reset code attacks. In a preferred embodiment, this is achieved by 1. Scanning the active memory for evidence of "hard reset attack" code. 2. Scanning the filesystem for evidence of "hard reset attack" code. 3. Scanning the active memory for evidence of "soft reset attack" code. 4. Scanning the filesystem for evidence of "soft reset attack" code. 5. Automatically blocking and cleaning the reset code, based on user preference. 6. Providing optional user control over which programs are allowed to write to the startup folder.
