Shield from exploits
So, you wanted some kind of protection from 0-day exploits… here it is.
Amazing work by F-Secure! http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/archives/00001607.html
From their website:
You may also remember that Microsoft patched MS08-078 around the same time. Multiple versions of Internet Explorer were affected on multiple versions of the Windows OS and exploit code was circulating at the time. Exploit Shield 0.5 was able to proactively protect against those exploits.
Exploit Shield is designed to shield Web browsers between the development of an exploit and the release of the vendor’s patch.
To sum up, Exploit Shield provides:
• Zero Day Defense: Protects unpatched machines.
• Patch-Equivalent Protection: Vulnerability “shield” updates.
• Proactive Measures: Heuristic detection techniques.
• Protects Against All Websites: Regardless if untrusted or trusted and malicious or hacked.
• Automatic Feedback: detected exploit attempts are automatically reported to F-Secure.
